Abstract : The purpose of this study is to determine the specific heat capacities of car oils at low temperature (26-35oC). I used experimental method, setting my procedure and analysis the data by using excel and draw graphs by using MATLAB. I used water as the standard mean that first I tried to determine the specific heat capacity of water using colorimeter which is 4184J/kg oc but I determined 4020J/kg oc which is an error around 3.91% this has right to continue my experiment to the next oils by using the same ways. I obtained the specific heat capacity of Deo max 7 and HBF 4 is 4.4736 and 6.8556 J/kgoc respectively. Not all engine oils are suitable for engines. Owing the specific heat capacity of the oils is very important because increase the performance of engine as it increases temperature.
Keywords : specific heat capacities, Deo Max (DM7)/ 15W-40(oilibya), HBF 4, temperature, liquids, density.
