Bottom line is that viscosity is not a major factor in determining the flow from a centrifugal pump in our operating range. Nice test Bob. Good idea to test two different fluids, rather than trying to raise the temp. Of course it's too bad that the flow didn't increase like the silly French guy said it would, but not surprising. I would have been amazed if it had really changed that much.
