Oil... how does it work? [split]

Because more viscous is thinner and
Less viscous is thicker.

Better correct yourself before you have Wayne jumping in here calling you dumb.

Viscosity is a unit of measurement. It’s not relative. It’s going to vary at different temperatures yes, but an inch is an inch and a foot is a foot. It’s a unit of measurement.

If two fluids are tested at entirely different temps their viscosity will be recorded as the same, at those corresponding temps.

Here is a proposal for you.

You measure a random fluid at 50 degrees celsius and it’s rather fluid. So you think it’s rather viscous so you give it a reading of 60. You freeze it at zero and it becomes molasses like, thicker, what reading what you give it?

Keep in mind, the higher the number the thicker.

The viscosity of your mystery fluid would be higher if it got thicker.

I can not comprehend what you are not understanding.
