Methanol - Dynamic and Kinematic Viscosity vs. Temperature and Pressure

Online calculator, figures and tables showing dynamic and kinematic viscosity of liquid methanol,CH3OH, at varying temperature - 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 methanol viscosity and viscosity units conversion are given below the figures.

Online Methanol Viscosity Calculator

The calculator below can be used to estimate dynamic or kinematic viscosity of liquid methanol at given temperatures. The atmospheric boiling point of methanol is 64.15 °C (147.47 °F), and methanol must be pressurized to be present as liquid above that temperature.
The output dynamic viscosity is given as Pa*s, N*s/m2, cP, mPa*s, lbf *s/ft2and lbm /(ft*h),
while the kinematic viscosity is given as cSt, m2/s, and ft2/s

Choose the actual unit of temperature:

Dynamic and kinematic viscosity of liquid methanol at varying temperature:


Methanol viscosity liquid C
Methanol viscosity liquid F

The atmospheric boiling point of methanol is 64.15 °C (147.47 °F), and methanol must therefore be pressurized to be present as liquid above that temperature.
