Viscosity - temperature chart

1 Description

The preheating temperature can be determined by means of the viscosity - temperature

chart shown in Figure 1. In order to use the chart, the viscosity of the fuel oil must be
known at a reference temperature.

It should be noted that the preheating temperature should be set somewhat higher than
the temperature shown in the chart due to the heat loss between pre-heater and nozzle/
cup.

1.1 Example

The example is based on a pressure jet burner type MS or RMS.

Known:
Oil viscosity: 380 cSt. at 50°C

Required:
Preheating temperature in °C

Procedure to be followed:
Step A: Follow the reference temperature line at 50°C vertically down to the inter-
section with the 380 cSt. viscosity line.
Step B: From this point move parallel down with the nearest fuel grade line.
Step C: When the line meets the recommended nozzle viscosity line, go vertically
up to the temperature axis.
Step D: At this point read the desired preheating temperature of 150°C.
