Other Ways
of Measuring Effective Viscosity
If a
viscometer is not available an accurate method of determining the fluid viscosity is to
run the product in a pilot circuit, recording pressure drop through a linear length of
line, pipe I.D., and flow rate. From this data the actual viscosity of a Non-Newtonian
fluid can be determined by using the friction table backwards.
