Hi All,

I've been struggling to find temperature dependent properties for 10W-30 engine oil online anywhere.

What I've been looking for are things like specific heat, density, and dynamic viscosity on a range of like 20-240 degC (doesn't have be exactly that range) in a tabular format.

Could someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks!
 
What about the SAE, who writes the oil specs.
For some of the data (spec heat) you will have to be satisfied with the properties of the base oil.

See if you can contact the oil manufacturer directly. Some companies have good customer service. I bet if I called or emailed Amsoil, they would respond in a helpful way. mobil 1? Maybe not
