Each of the data points of a Site Liquid Table (maximum of 32) may be filled in by the user as indicated
in the menu screen shown above.
Index Value - The temperature-corrected sonic velocity (LiquIdent) which points to the output variables
forming the balance of the table entry. Below this you may enter the values associated with that LiquIdent
value.
S.G. - The specific gravity of the liquid at system Base Temperature, usually 60ºF. By specific gravity we
mean the ratio of equal volumes of this liquid and water at this base temperature.
Viscosity - The kinematic viscosity of the liquid at system Base Temperature (units: centistokes).
Visc Slope - The exponent of the logarithmic expression used to project the liquid viscosity at measured
temperature. The default value (-0.0287) has been found to be adequate for many hydrocarbons.
