Hello everyone,

I'm doing some work with different liquids flowing through a pipeline system and I need to correct their density and viscosity values for changes in temperature. One of the substances is gasoline and i'm having a hard time finding an equation or even a table that relates these properties. I've tried searching in Perry's handbook and Prausnitz's properties of gases and liquids but without success concerning gasoline :/

Any idea where could I find these data? Many thanks in advance.

Hi Egil

For correcting density with respect to temperature, should consult the API MPMS "Handbook of Petroleum Measurement Standards"

Good luck.

There are two spreadsheets available from Cheresources on denisty and viscosity variations with temperature.
Try here and here:
