Ethylene - Dynamic and Kinematic Viscosity vs. Temperature and Pressure

Online calculator, figures and tables showing dynamic and kinematic viscosity of ethylene, C2H4, also called ethene or acetene, at varying temperature and pressure - Imperial and SI Units.

The viscosity of a fluid is a measure of its resistance to gradual deformation by shear stress or tensile stress .

For further definitions, go to Absolute (dynamic) and kinematic viscosity . Absolute or dynamic viscosity is used to calculate Reynold's Number to determine if a fluid flow is laminar, transient or turbulent.

Tabulated values of ethylene viscosity and viscosity units conversion are given below the figures.

Online Ethylene Viscosity Calculator

The calculator below can be used to calculate ethylene dynamic or kinematic viscosity at given temperatures and atmospheric pressure.
The atmospheric boiling point of ethylene is -104 °C (-155 °F), which gives a shift in viscosity at that temperature.

The output dynamic viscosity is given as Pas, Ns/m2, cP, mPas, lbfs/ft2 and lbm/fth, while the kinematic viscosity is given as cSt, m2/s and ft2/s.

Choose the actual unit of temperature:

as well as dynamic and kinematic viscosity of air, ammonia, benzene, butane, carbon dioxide, ethanol, methane, methanol, nitrogen, oxygen, propane and water.
