148 ENGINEER-IN-TRAINING REFERENCE MANUAL Unlike absolute viscosity, kinematic viscosity is greatly de- ‘on both temperature and pressure, since these vari- Bbles affect the density of the ud. Refecting to Eq. 14.19, even if absolute viscosity is independeat of temperature or pressure, the change in density will change the kinematic Viscosity LL VISCOSITY CONVERSIONS “The most common units of absolute and kinematic viscosity are listed in Table 14.4. ‘Table 144 Common Viseosity Units absolute: (44) kinematic (¥) ae English Thsee/f® fC /see (Glug/ft-see) ‘conventional dyne-sem* == cm?/s ‘mettic ‘(@oise) (stoke) st Pas m/s Ws/m?) ‘Table 14.5 contains conversions between the various vis~ cosity units.

To emphasize this difference, the API or Baurné Baumé or Degrees API specific gravity is often reported as 60° Specific gravity Ss ‘This notation indicates that both the reference fluid (water) and the oil are at 60°F. ‘Specific gravities of crude oils vary widely depending on where they are found. ‘Those from the western U.S. range from approximately 0.87 to 0.92. Eastern US. oil fields produce oil at about 0.82 specific gravity. Mexican crude oil is among the highest at 0.97. A few heavy asphaltic oils have sg > 1.0. (See Reference 6.) ‘Most oils are distilled before use to enhance their quality of burning.
