The higher the number the higher the viscosity.
Viscosity tells you the speed at which the oil will flow. The lower the viscosity the faster the oil will flow at 210 degrees fahrenheit as in an SAE30 weight oil. Any oil with a W attached such as SAE 10w30 means the oil was tested at a cold temperature and will flow as a 10 weight when it is cold and then performs as a 30 weight at 210 degrees.
The difference in viscosity between oil and water is that oil is more viscous than water. Viscosity refers to a liquid's resistance to flow, and oil has a higher viscosity than water, meaning it flows more slowly.
I dont know why you would want to do that. The multi viscosity and straight weight oils wont mix and the multi viscosity oil will be expended faster when it is at its low end. If they happen to reach the correct temperature together, they will flow as united and become the same weight but never be homogenous.
SAE30
Yes, the Ostwalds viscometer can be used to measure the viscosity of more viscous oil.
SAE30
sae30
Mixing oil weights is a NO,NO.
In my beetle I run SAE30 oil in winter, SAE40 in summer. I change oild religiously at 3K minle intervals without fail. Aircooleds don't seem to like multi-viscosity oils. If it's below freezing out the SAE20W oil is called for.
The ease with which it flows or how thin or thick it is. the more solid it is the higher the viscosity. As in Oil the thicker it is the higher the viscosity machine oil low viscosity, gearbox oil high viscosity.
Cannabis oil viscosity refers to how thick or thin the oil is. The viscosity can affect how easily the oil can be vaporized or absorbed by the body. Lower viscosity oils tend to be thinner and may be more suitable for vaping, while higher viscosity oils may be preferred for topical or oral use.
Single viscosity is high quality oil. Mulit-viscosity oil is used for in the winter.
