  2. Viscosity index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscosity_index

    The higher the VI, the more stable the viscosity remains over some temperature range. The VI was originally measured on a scale from 0 to 100; however, advancements in lubrication science have led to the development of oils with much higher VIs. [1] The viscosity of a lubricant is closely related to its ability to reduce friction in solid body ...

  3. Oscillating U-tube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oscillating_U-tube

    U-tube with piezo-electric actuator Digital density measuring principle. The oscillating U-tube is a technique to determine the density of liquids and gases based on an electronic measurement of the frequency of oscillation, from which the density value is calculated.

  4. Viscometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscometer

    The higher the viscosity, the larger the damping imposed on the resonator. The resonator's damping may be measured by one of several methods: Measuring the power input necessary to keep the oscillator vibrating at a constant amplitude. The higher the viscosity, the more power is needed to maintain the amplitude of oscillation.

    Anton Paar GmbH is an Austrian company based in Graz that develops, produces and sells analytical instruments for laboratories and process analytical technology. The company operates globally, with subsidiaries in 37 countries. [ 1 ]

  6. Rheometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rheometer

    Materials with a viscosity range from approximately 1 to 1000 Pa.s. are used in filament stretching rheometers. Materials with a high viscosity >1000 Pa.s., such as polymer melts, are best characterized by constant-length devices. [10] Extensional rheometry is commonly performed on materials that are subjected to a tensile deformation.

  7. Viscosity models for mixtures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscosity_models_for_mixtures

    The dilute gas viscosity contribution to the total viscosity of a fluid will only be important when predicting the viscosity of vapors at low pressures or the viscosity of dense fluids at high temperatures. The viscosity model for dilute gas, that is shown above, is widely used throughout the industry and applied science communities.

  8. Viscosity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscosity

    The proportionality factor is the dynamic viscosity of the fluid, often simply referred to as the viscosity. It is denoted by the Greek letter mu ( μ ). The dynamic viscosity has the dimensions ( m a s s / l e n g t h ) / t i m e {\displaystyle \mathrm {(mass/length)/time} } , therefore resulting in the SI units and the derived units :

  9. Nanoindentation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanoindentation

    where S = dP/dh is the apparent tip-sample contact stiffness at the onset of unload, ˙ is the displacement rate just before the unload, ˙ is the unloading rate, and is the true (i.e. viscosity-corrected) tip-sample contact stiffness which is related to the reduced modulus and the tip-sample contact size by the Sneddon relation.
