"Cone and plate" viscometers use a narrow-angled cone in close proximity to a flat plate. With this system, the shear rate between the geometries is constant at any given rotational speed. The viscosity can easily be calculated from shear stress (from the torque) and shear rate (from the angular velocity).
A conical plate centrifuge (also known as a disc bowl centrifuge or disc stack separator) is a type of centrifuge that has a series of conical discs which provides a parallel configuration of centrifugation spaces. [1]
The liquid is placed on horizontal plate and a shallow cone placed into it. The angle between the surface of the cone and the plate is around 1–2 degrees but can vary depending on the types of tests being run. Typically the plate is rotated and the torque on the cone measured.
A conic is the curve obtained as the intersection of a plane, called the cutting plane, with the surface of a double cone (a cone with two nappes).It is usually assumed that the cone is a right circular cone for the purpose of easy description, but this is not required; any double cone with some circular cross-section will suffice.
The cone is unrolled, and the parallel that was touching the sphere is assigned unit scale. That parallel is called the standard parallel . By scaling the resulting map, two parallels can be assigned unit scale , with scale decreasing between the two parallels and increasing outside them.
Cone: Tapers smoothly from a flat base (frequently, though not necessarily, circular) to a point called the apex or vertex: A right circular cone and an oblique circular cone Cylinder: Straight parallel sides and a circular or oval cross section A solid elliptic cylinder A right and an oblique circular cylinder Ellipsoid
An elliptic cone, a special case of a conical surface, shown truncated for simplicity In geometry , a conical surface is an unbounded three-dimensional surface formed from the union of infinite lines that pass through a fixed point and a space curve .
The axis of a cone is the straight line passing through the apex about which the cone has a circular symmetry. In common usage in elementary geometry, cones are assumed to be right circular, i.e., with a circle base perpendicular to the axis. [1] If the cone is right circular the intersection of a plane with the lateral surface is a conic section.
