Ernest,
I had no idea that water viscosity changed that much with
temperature. Is the same true of 50 - 50 glycol & water?

Then:
v = pir ^4 p/8cl
*Viscosity of Water as a Function of
Temperature*
Temperature
/°C Viscosity
/cP
20 1.002
40
0.653
60 0.467
80 0.355
100 0.282
Pump A Only:
14.0
V 8.4 A 6 GPM 56
F
56F => 14C
180F => 82C
My reasoning:
All other
factor being equal, cutting the viscosity to 1/3 will triple
the
flow. If the WP136 flows 6GPM at 56F, it can be expected to flow
18GPM at 180F, closer to 20GPM at 190F.
Ernest (also a true
believer, but so were all those people at
Jonestown)
