The viscosity of a fluid has considerable influence on the heat transfer from a submerged heating pipe. Be aware that the viscosity of a fluid is highly dependent on the temperature.
This table can be used as a very rough guide to approximate the heat emission from a submerged pipe:
| Application | Fluid | Heat Emission (Btu/ft2.h.oF) |
| Steam coil wit medium steam pressure and natural convection | Light Oils | 30 |
| Heavy Oils | 15 - 20 | |
| Fats | 5 - 10 | |
| Steam coil with medium pressure and forced convection | Light Oils | 100 |
| Heavy Oils | 60 | |
| Fats | 30 |
