Natural gas, Water, standard oil. say motor oil properties

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around the properties of natural gas, water, and various oils, particularly motor oil. Participants seek specific data such as densities, viscosities, operating temperatures, pressures, and other chemical properties relevant to these substances.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory, Technical explanation, Homework-related

Main Points Raised

  • One participant requests properties of natural gas, water, and motor oil, expressing difficulty in finding this information online.
  • Another participant points out that the attachments provided do not work and asks for clarification on the specific details needed.
  • A participant shares a list of desired properties, including densities, viscosities, operating conditions, and molecular weights.
  • Another participant notes that the attachments appear to show specification values rather than raw data and suggests that density and viscosity can be easily found online, while other properties depend on specific processes.
  • A question is raised about the reason behind the initial request for these properties.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants generally agree on the types of properties being sought, but there is no consensus on the availability of specific data or the relevance of the attachments provided. The discussion remains unresolved regarding the exact information needed and its context.

Contextual Notes

Some properties mentioned may depend on specific conditions or processes, which are not detailed in the discussion. The relevance of the attachments to the requested properties is also unclear.

how we doing? i was just wondering does anyone have the properties of the following similar to the images attached.Natural gas, Water, standard oil. say motor oil properties.any oil properties would do me really? i would be vary grateful if i could get a copy of each of these of someone there doesn't seem to be much online.. thanks in advance

Your attachments don't work. What details do you need?

these any good?

am just a chart with..
densities, viscosities, room temps, standard operating pressures/ temperatures compressibility factors. volumetric flowrates, molecuar weights. composition.. as well if possible .. thanks in advance...
 
Those attachments look fine.

Your example seems to show standard or max/min limiting conditions for some kind of process, rather than material or chemical properties. The first page shows specification values for natural gas, but it isn't data as such.

Density and viscosity are easy (just get googling!), but temperatures, operating pressures and flow rates are specific to whatever process you're concerned with.

Can we ask the reason for your question?
