How to increase the viscosity of heat transfer oil?

2019-04-12View Original

Thread Content

As the title suggests, due to experimental requirements, I need to increase the viscosity of the heat transfer oil. Are there any suitable reagents that can be used for this purpose? Or could I mix in heat transfer oil of other grades with higher viscosity?

Cooling can increase viscosity; I’m not sure if the conditions where you are allow that

The issue in question is an objective one: the higher the temperature, the lower the viscosity of the heat transfer oil, resulting in faster flow and better heat transfer. Therefore, designing the heat dissipation pipes in a spiral shape is driven by both functional requirements and inherent characteristics.

It is possible to consider adding a certain amount of grease; after mixing it well, conduct the experiment
