Anybody know a real rough estimate or calculation from an engine book on how many btu/hr are introduced to engine oil based on rpm? I may just make something up, but we are trying to figure this out for a project for class.

I took a look at thermal survey results from 2 engines at work today. One was a turbo 4 cylinder and another was a n/a V8. Both use piston oil squirters so they might have a little additional heat put into the oil than most engines, but the amount of heat rejected to the oil was only about 10% of the peak power number.
