    This document provides viscosity data for various liquids at different temperatures. It lists the centipoise (CPS) viscosity measurement alongside the temperature and name of common liquids. It emphasizes that understanding the viscous characteristics of a liquid, such as Newtonian or non-Newtonian behavior, is important when selecting pumps for viscous liquid applications and calculating pressure drops and losses in pipelines. Conversion factors are also provided to convert between centistokes and other common viscosity measurement units.

    Consideration of pumps for viscous liquid applications requires a thorough discussion of


    the viscous nature of the liquid and piping system. The viscous characteristics of the
    liquid --- Newtonian, Thixotropic, Dilatant, Colloidal or Rheopectic should be established
    when providing viscosity data. Most all calculations for pressure drops and pipeline
    losses for viscous liquids are in laminar flow patterns.
