Formula 1.143
Viscosity of dead oil - Standing's correlation
Input(s)
API: API Gravity of Oil (API)
$\mathrm{t}$: Temperature $(\mathrm{F})$
Output(s)
$\mu_{\mathrm{od}}$: Viscosity of Dead Oil (cP)
Formula(s)
$$ \mu_{\mathrm{od}}=\left(0.32+\left(1.8 * \frac{10^{7}}{\mathrm{API}^{4.53}}\right)\right)\left(\frac{360}{\mathrm{t}+200}\right)^{10^{0.43+\frac{8.33}{\mathrm{API}}}} $$
