Lec 10 Flashcards
Example of rheological
1) viscosity
2)elasticity
3) plasticity
Why measure viscosity
Effective way to know the state or fluidity of a liquid
2 categories of viscosity
1)newtonian fluid(viscosity constant )
2) non-newtonian fluid(viscosity changes)
Factor affecting the viscosity
-Temp(increase of temp,viscosity decrease)
-air bubbles (affect the accuracy)
Sonicator
Used to degassing the sample
Type of viscometer
1)vibro(measure electric current)
2)rotational (running torque)
3)capillary (difference in pressure)
4)falling ball(time take for object to fall at specific distance)
5)cup type (time take for sample to flow out)
Application of viscosity
1) food industry
2)cosmetic product
3)building industry
4) petroleum industry
5) quality check
