Scope*1.1 This practice2covers the conversion tables and equa-tions for converting kinematic viscosity in mm2/s at anytemperature to Saybolt Universal viscosity in Saybolt Univer-sal seconds (SUS) at the same temperature and for conve
4、rtingkinematic viscosity in mm2/s at 122 and 210F (50 and 98.9C)to Saybolt Furol viscosity in Saybolt Furol seconds (SFS) at thesame temperatures. Kinematic viscosity values are based onwater being 1.0034 mm2/s (cSt) at 68F (20C).NOTE 1Afundamental and preferred method for measuring kinematicviscosi
5、ty is by use of kinematic viscometers as outlined in Test MethodD445. It is recommended that kinematic viscosity be reported in millime-tres squared per second, instead of Saybolt Universal Seconds (SUS) orSaybolt Furol Seconds (SFS). This method is being retained for thepurpose of calculation of ki
6、nematic viscosities from SUS and SFS datathat appear in past literature. One millimetre squared per second (mm2/s)equals one centistoke (cSt), which is another unit commonly found inolder literature.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard. The values given in parentheses
7、are provided forreference information purposes only. The SI unit of kinematicviscosity is mm2/s.1.2.1 ExceptionFahrenheit temperature units are used inthis practice because they are accepted by industry for the typeof legacy conversions described in this practice.1.3 This standard does not purport t
8、o address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Procedure for Conversion to Saybolt UniversalViscosity5.1 Convert kinematic viscosities between 1.81 and 500mm2/s (cSt) at 100F, and between 1.77 and 139.8 mm2/s (cSt)at 210F, to equivalent Saybolt Universal seconds directly fromTable 1 (see Appendix X1, Example 1
18、).NOTE 2Obtain viscosities not listed, but which are within the rangegiven in Table 1, by linear interpolation (see Appendix X1, Example 2).5.2 Convert kinematic viscosities greater than the upperlimits of Table 1 at temperatures of 100 and 210F to SayboltUniversal viscosities as follows (see Append

20、Universal viscosity at tF, andU100F= Saybolt Universal viscosity at 100F in SayboltUniversal seconds equivalent to kinematic viscos-ity in centistokes at tF, from Table 1.NOTE 3The multipliers for Saybolt Universal seconds in Eq 2 aregiven as Factor A in Table 2 for a range of temperatures.5.4 Since
21、 the relationship between Saybolt and kinematicviscosities is linear above 75 mm2/s (cSt), kinematic viscositiesabove this limit may be converted to Saybolt Universalviscosities at any temperature between 0 and 350F by use ofEq 1 (4.2), selecting the proper factor for B from Table 2 (seeAppendix X1,
22、 Example 5).6. Procedure for Conversion to Saybolt Furol Viscosity6.1 Convert kinematic viscosities between 48 to 1300 mm2/s (cSt) at 122F, and between 50 and 1300 mm2/s (cSt) at210F, to equivalent Saybolt Furol seconds directly from Table3 (see Appendix X1, Examples 6 and 7).NOTE 4Viscosities not l
23、isted, but which are within the range given inTable 3, may be obtained by linear interpolation (see Appendix X1,Example 8).6.2 Convert kinematic viscosities above 1300 cSt to equiva-lent Saybolt Furol seconds by use of the following equations(see Appendix X1, Example 9):Saybolt Furol seconds at 122F
