Absolute oil viscosity versus KInematic oil viscosity

Absolute oil viscosity versus Kinematic viscosity Oil viscosity refers to the thickness or resistance to flow of the engine oil. It’s a crucial property that determines how easily the oil moves through the engine’s components, providing lubrication to reduce friction, protect against wear, and help cool the engine. But there’s more to it than that; there’s absolute or “dynamic” viscosity, and there’s kinematic viscosity Absolute viscosity is different than Kinematic viscosity Kinematic viscosity is measured by draining or pouring — it’s about gravity flow Kinematic viscosity measures how a motor … Read More
