Oil will run cooler the faster it can flow even though it is removing more heat from the bearings it flows through.
Heat quantity and temperature are related but different. Basically, thinner oil flows through the bearings at a faster rate. More heat is carried away but the overall temperature of the oil as measured at the sender can be lower than when the oil was moving more slowly. Higher oil pressure indicates lower flow rates. Oil heats up faster and eventually gets hotter. Flow rates depend on the actual viscosity curves with temperature which may not be exactly linear. More viscous oil flows more slowly (that's essentially what "viscous" means in layman's terms. ). |
