Hi, I'm working with a closed system full of mineral oil and the temp is increased from 25 C to 138 C. How do i calculate the increase in pressure due to the rise in temp? A physical experiment gave us a reading of 6,100 psi (42.06 Mpa) at 280 F (138 C) in a closed chamber with a pressure...- nhm4196
