  2. Qs. 1 on VI The coefficient of dynamic viscosity values for a high grade oil and a low grade oil at 40 oC are 15 cp and 60 cp respectively. It is required to determine the viscosity index (VI) of an oil having a viscosity value of 25 cp (centipoise) at 40 oC. The test and reference oils have the same viscosity values at 100 oC. Determine the VI of the test oil using the Dean Davis method. Step 1. Check whether the viscosity of the test oil at 40 oC (U) is in between those of the high grade oil (H) and low grade oil (L) or not. We see that L = 60 cp, H = 15 cp, and U = 25 cp, H < U < L Therefore we can use the formula,

Reynold’s equation in 1 dimension gives the pressure (p) drop in the x-direction as Find the pressure drop in the x direction when the height of separation “h” is 0.5 mm. Calculate the flow rate in the x direction given its formula per unit width as Given: U = 20 cm/s, coefficient of dynamic viscosity h = 40 cp. The distance of separation at maximum pressure ho is 0.4 mm. There is negligible flow in other directions.
