Try
higher oil viscosity; use 30 W instead of 10W, etc..
Not exact matches
We still don't know enough about tar sand
oil, or bitumen, which takes longer to break down due to its
high viscosity, but doesn't spread, we also don't know much about the behavior of
oil from a blowout, such as the Deepwater Horizon BP blowout, and we know little of how crude
oil behaves in the Arctic Ocean, where there is ice, or how to remediate it,» said Michel Boufadel, director of NJIT's Center for Natural Resources Development and Protection and a member of the panel of experts charged with evaluating the impact of spills in Northern waters.
By modifying the oilseed biochemistry in camelina, the researchers have achieved very
high levels of an
oil with reduced
viscosity and improved cold temperature characteristics.
A3 / B3 Stable, stay - in - grade
oil intended for use in
high performance gasoline engines and car & light van diesel engines and / or for extended drain intervals where specified by the engine manufacturer, and / or for year - round use of low
viscosity oils, and / or for severe operating conditions as defined by the engine manufacturer.
Breaking down the 0W - 20 code, «0» is the
oil's
viscosity at startup when the engine is cold, «W» stands for its winter certification, and «20» is the
viscosity at
higher temperatures.
The
oil level is fine and stable, there are no leaks, and the
oil is a
high quality 5w30
oil that is specifically recommended for the car; the
oil viscosity is identical or nearly identical, I believe, to the previous
oil (it was either 5w30 or 5w40).
It has
high detergency, good
viscosity range, and also serves as a great «break - in»
oil for new chrome rings installed on an older engine.
The main reason for these new low
viscosity oils is fuel efficiency, the side effect is engineers have changed the
oiling systems on new cars in various ways that do not tolerate
high viscosity oils, but could assume you are correct about reducing warm up time before
oil flows to all internal parts in the engine.
Oil has
higher viscosity and lower specific heat than water, so thermal transfer will be affected.
Wear protection and reduced
oil consumption; helps to maintain
viscosity in severe,
high temperature service
Most of the problems can be avoided by using a
higher viscosity oil and adding 2 cycle
oil to the fuel.
As
oil has a
higher viscosity than water, I think it could damage the water pump because it would put more stress on it.
My guess is the switch to
higher viscosity is not providing better protection but reduces the amount of
oil lost in the combustion process.Because it is thicker less of it blows by into the exhaust.This indirectly lessens the time the engine is running with less than optimal
oil volume.The potential down side is at lower ambient temps.the
oil will take longer to circulate through the motor on a cold start.Also a slight decrease in mpg as stated as the engine works harder to move the thicker
oil.Mixing
viscosity won't cause any harm.My theory has always been that 5w30 with 1000 miles on it is no thicker than 5w20 with 0miles on it.
Have into account two factors:
oil viscosity may be much or very much
higher than the antifreeze fluid (glicol - polipropylene derivates) normally used: the radiator grille has capilare - thickness tubes and an hydraulic circuit (pump, filter, reservoir...) prepared for much less
viscosity.
Production commenced of the FD25A rear differential, which features a
high capacity and is light and highly efficient due to the use of a thin - walled cast iron carrier, equi - depth tooth gears, low - resistance bearings, low -
viscosity oil, and
high - strength differential gears
Production of the BD21B rear differential commenced, featuring
higher torque capacity and improved durability compared to conventional differentials and using multi-row tapered roller bearings and low -
viscosity oil, thereby improving the transmission efficiency and fuel efficiency
Production commenced of the VD19C front differential, which features a
high capacity and is light and highly efficient due to the use of an aluminum carrier, equi - depth tooth gears, low - resistance bearings, and low -
viscosity oil
One of the issues in the production of unconventional hydrocarbons such as Canadian
oil sands or heavy oils is their inability to be transported via pipeline due to low API gravity,
high viscosity or
high pour point.
But transporting
oil from western Canada by pipeline is less expensive than shipping by rail, which requires specialized cars and / or specialized handling because of the very
high viscosity of
oil sands
oil.
Thicker oils with a
higher viscosity level make your engine work harder to pump the
oil through the engine.
We played with Fusion ™ Gilding Paste which is a
high viscosity sunflower
oil saturated with pigment.
