Viscosity Conversion vs Mean HVAC BS Tools

Viscosity Conversion - Easily convert between various types of units for Dynamic Viscosity, Kinematic Viscosity, and Dynamic Viscosity for Oil and Water. Viscosity is the state of being thick, sticky, and semi-fluid in consistency, primarily due to internal friction. It is quantified by a measure of the magnitude of internal friction, typically represented as the force per unit area resisting flow between parallel layers at a unit distance apart moving at unit speed relative to each other. Viscosity of a fluid indicates its resistance to gradual deformation under shear stress or tensile stress. In everyday terms, it's akin to the concept of "thickness." For instance, honey exhibits significantly higher viscosity compared to water. Fluid viscosity reflects its resistance to shear or flow and serves as an indicator of its adhesive, cohesive, or frictional properties. This resistance arises due to internal molecular friction within the fluid, resulting in a frictional drag effect. There are two key measures of fluid viscosity: dynamic and kinematic viscosity. Viscosity Types: 1. Dynamic Viscosity - Characteristic of fluids and plastic solids, dynamic viscosity quantifies a substance's resistance to deformation and is informally known as "thickness." 2. Dynamic Viscosity for Oil and Water - Conversion factors for viscosity, encompassing various oils, water, glycerin, and different temperatures. 3. Kinematic Viscosity - Includes units such as Stokes, centistokes, lentor, square meter/second, square foot/second, poise cubic centimeter/gram, and more.

BS Tools is a toolkit of calculators designed for HVAC and other Building Science (BS) applications, as an alternative to more tedious, manual methods. UTILITIES Single Point Psychrometrics: This calculator provides psychrometric properties of air at a glance. It's great for changing humidity units. Mixed Air Psychrometrics: This calculator provides psychrometric properties of the resulting air of two mixed air streams, e.g. ventilation air mixed with return air. Duct Calculator: In a word, it's a classic 'ductulator'. This tool accepts any two choice inputs among CFM (Air Flow Volume), Duct Diameter, Friction Rate (Head Loss), and Air Velocity. This utility will then provide the other two parameters for you. Uses either a round diameter, or rectangular dimensions. Smallest Zone Calculator: This calculator can be used to gauge how much excess air is acceptable in a heating or cooling system. Bypass Calculator: Paired with the Smallest Zone Calculator, this can tell you how much air you can bypass. Values are unique for cooling and heating (adjustable for altitude). IR Wall Insulation: This calculator can help you estimate the R-Value of a wall, with Infrared (IR) exterior and interior surface, and interior ambient temperatures. Provides a common wall material that best matches your readings with a general degree of confidence in that match. Note included tips on measuring for best results. Parallel R-Value: This calculator provides an overall R-Value (and U-Value) for a wood frame building assembly* (typically a wall), given the R-Values of different materials and their areas or proportions present in the assembly. *Not for use with metal framing. ASHRAE 62.2-2019: Gives ventilation CFM requirements corresponding to ASHRAE 62.2-2019. Fan Run-Time: Simple calculator to calculate ventilation system run time, in min/hr, given the ventilation requirement and fan capacity. Pairs nicely with ASHRAE 62.2 Calculator (and is automatically linked). Note: The above calculators use IP (inch / pound) units. Unit Converter: Converts units. Interpolator: For when you have the number you're looking for at THIS point and THAT point but you're actually somewhere BETWEEN those points.
