The article is focused on mathematical simulation of the temperature influence on the pressure drop at the pump suction line. It is evaluated pressure drop depending on mineral oil flow rate. The courses of individual dependencies are determined by mathematical simulation using the ANSYS CFD computing software. The temperature affects significantly physical properties of the flowing mineral oil. In a paper is also described the experimental measurement of a mineral oil sample and determination of its physical properties depending on temperature.
