Flow and viscosity.

The flow volume rate is inversely proportionate to viscosity.

In order to get 15% of flow increase, you then need to have approximately 15% of viscosity reduction (1/0,85 = 1,15).

For example, whereas maximum AOT viscosity reduction can go up to 56%, we know that this varies during the day (temperature), type of oils etc... For example, if in 24hours you have a reduction of 30% one third of the time, 15% another third and 5% the last third, you would get an average of 16% viscosity reduction, and your 15% flow increase.

So there is no contradiction between the two figures (flow and viscosity reduction). Flow increase is an averaging of the viscosity reduction observed during the day, or between different types of oil or other parameters. Given that there are of course enough AOTs on the line to sustain the physical effect...
