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
