What else can I help you with?
Does water or motor oil flow faster?
Water is faster by it's lower viscosity, though oil viscosity is more temperature dependent than that of water.
If you put a hot metal block in oil and in water which liquid heats faster?
The metal block will heat faster in oil because oil has a lower specific heat capacity than water. This means it requires less energy to raise the temperature of the oil compared to water.
What are the similarities in a lava flow and a pyroclastic flow?
A lava flow is simply a flow of liquid rock down a slope that usually results from an effusive eruption. A pyroclastic flow is an avalanche-like flow of hot ash, rock and gas that moves down a volcano during an explosive eruption, The move much faster than lava flows and are far more dangerous.
Why does oil become runny when heated up?
When oil is heated, its molecules gain energy and move faster, causing the oil to become less viscous and more runny. The increase in temperature decreases the oil's viscosity, making it flow more easily.
Should engine be warm or cold when adding oil?
It is typically recommended to add oil to a warm engine, as this allows the oil to flow more easily and drain any impurities. However, it is important to ensure the engine is not too hot to avoid burns.
What is oil viscocity all about?
Viscosity refers to the way in which oil will flow under certain conditions. Cold oil will flow slowly, hot oil much faster. It is the extent to which the substance resists a tendency to flow
Does water or motor oil flow faster?
Water is faster by it's lower viscosity, though oil viscosity is more temperature dependent than that of water.
What is Difference between 15w-30 and 15w-40 oil?
15w means they are the viscosity (flow) when the oil is cold, the -30 and -40 is the viscosity of the oil when hot. Therefore the 15w-30 being the lower Viscosity means it will flow fast then the 15w-40 when the oil is hot.
Why viscosity is important for engine oil?
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.
What is the oil cooler flow direction on a 727 transmission?
The front fitting on the transmission is the hot pressured oil going to the oil cooler, the rear one is the return.
How do you get oil shell out of the ground?
That would be "Oil shale" - shale is a kind of rock. Anyway, the oil shale is dug up and then hot, hot steam or other substance is run through it to make the oil runny enough to flow down and out, where it is then collected.
How many gallons will flow through a 12 inch pipe at 50psi?
That depends entirely on the viscosity of the liquid in the pipe ! Water would flow faster than oil !
What is multi grade oil?
Multi-Grade or Multi-Weight oil is oil that has additives added to change viscosity of the oil at different temperatures. This allows the oil to flow differently at hot or cold temperatures. This type oil is designated with 2 numbers. The first number is followed by the letter W. The first number indicates the weight of the oil in cold temperatures (Winter). The second number indicates the weight of the oil in normal (hot) temperatures. This multi-weight allows the oil to flow easily when it is cold which protects the engine from excess wear when it is started when it is cold. It then thickens when it is hot to allow for better protection of a hot engine.
If you put a hot metal block in oil and in water which liquid heats faster?
The metal block will heat faster in oil because oil has a lower specific heat capacity than water. This means it requires less energy to raise the temperature of the oil compared to water.
Why does your cold water have water flow but hot water has no flow?
This could be due to a blockage in the hot water line or a malfunction in the hot water faucet. Check for any clogs in the faucet or the hot water pipe. If the issue persists, it may require a plumber to inspect and fix the problem.
What warms faster faster oil or water?
Oil.
