Ultra
High Pressure Viscometer: UHPV-100
A
new Instrument for the Accurate Determination of
the Viscous Properties of Newtonian and Non-Newtonian
Fluids at Ultra High Pressures.
The Ultra High Pressure Viscometer (UHPV-100)
consists of a metal needle with hemispherical ends falling
vertically in a fluid with its longitudinal axis along the
axis of a cylindrical container. A measurement of the
needle terminal velocity allows a determination of the
viscous properties of the test fluid. With the UHPV-100 the
needle falling time is measured automatically by means of
Hall sensors and a magnet in the needle.
