  • Calculation of Viscometer Constants for Cannon-Fenske Routine and Cannon-Fenske Opaque Viscometer
    filling is normally done at ambient temperature and the kinematic. viscosity is most often measured at another temperature, the volume of the test sample in. these viscometers increases or decreases slightly as the temperature rises or falls. This. volume change causes a change in the driving head
  • Viscosity Measurment Application Notes
    Most laboratory viscometers employ the well-known principle of rotational viscometers to measure viscosity by sensing the torque required to rotate a spindle at a constant speed while it is immersed in the sample fluid. This is because the torque, generally measured using the reaction torque
  • Precision of Viscosity Measurements
    The basic measurement unit of viscosity is centipoise. Most methods of measuring viscosity depend on a direct relationship to centipoise units for their validity. In the case of most processes requiring control of viscosity, the "cup second" method of measurement is used to calibrate automatic
  • Analysis of Errors in Viscosity Measurement
    An analysis was conducted to compare the operational characteristics of two different bench-. top semi-automated viscometers - the Cannon SImpleVIS and the Spectro Q3000.  This analysis. looked at three key areas which can lead to errant viscosity measurements when utilizing a. capillary viscometer
  • Ask the Expert: Measuring the Viscosity of an Oil
    using kinematic viscometers and reported in centistokes (cSt). Viscosity can also be measured using absolute (dynamic) viscosity techniques and reported in centipoise. Absolute techniques typically use rotational viscometers, whereas kinematic techniques will commonly use flow viscometers dependent
  • SPECTROVISC Q3000 SERIES VISCOMETER - A PORTABLE KINEMATIC OIL ANALYSIS SOLUTION FOR FIELD-BASED USERS
    This paper describes how using the handheld, solvent-free SpectroVisc Q3000 Series device in the field provides immediate and accurate kinematic viscosity measurements, even when compared to traditional laboratory viscometers. The SpectroVisc Q3000 Series uses new solvent-free technology
  • Viscosity Standards: Mixing For The Right Blend
    before shipment to the customer, but also at times in process to make sure that the evolution of the mixture is progressing correctly. The popular workhorse in most QC labs is the rotational viscometer. (See Figure 1) This instrument can measure a broad viscosity range, depending on choice
  • Eliminate Degassing When Measuring Viscosity of Compressor Oils
    Compressor oils can create unique challenges when trying to measure viscosity. Dissolved gases from refrigerants, in particular, tend to bubble out when these oils are measured using traditional viscometers. This can create errors in the measurement, typically causing readings to be much lower than
