What should be the oil (in litre) to batch weight (in kgs) ratio maintained in quenching. Is it 10:1 or 8:1?

As a general guideline during steel quenching, for a single quench, 10 liters of oil for each kilogrm of total charge weight will give an acceptable rise in oil temperature. However, with successive quenches some form of cooling may be necessary to prevent the oil from overheating.
D. Scott MacKenzie from Houghton International is one of the world's foremost experts on quenching. I recommend contacting him for additional information.

If I have good heat exchanger can I reduce the ration to 1:8?
