An industrial reference fluid for moderately high viscosity

Oliveira, Carla Padrel de; Caetano, Fernando J. P.; Fareleira, João M. N. A.; Fröba, Andreas P.; Harris, Kenneth R.; Leipertz, Alfred

In industrial practice, there is a demand for a reference standard for viscosity that is established for a readily available fluid to simplify the calibration of industrial viscometers for moderately high viscosities [(50 to 125) mPa · s]. Diisodecyl phthalate (DIDP) has been suggested as that reference fluid, and a number of studies of its properties have been carried out in several laboratories throughout the...


Validation of a vibrating-wire viscometer: measurements in the range of 0.5 to ...

Oliveira, Carla Padrel de; Caetano, Fernando J. P.; Fareleira, João M. N. A.; Wakeham, William A.

The present article describes a novel vibrating-wire viscometer that has been shown to be able to measure viscosities up to 135 mPaâs, after calibration against water at 20 °C, to provide direct traceability to the primary reference for viscosity. For the purpose of validating the instrument, measurements of the viscosity of some selected fluids, including standard reference liquids with viscosity on the order ...


Viscosity measurements of liquid toluene at low temperatures using a dual vibra...

Oliveira, Carla Padrel de; Caetano, Fernando J. P.; Mata, José L. Correia da; Fareleira, João M. N. A.; Wakeham, William A.

A recently developed dual vibrating-wire technique has been used to perform viscosity measurements of liquid toluene in the temperature range 213 K ≤ T ≤ 298 K, and at pressures up to approximately 20 MPa. The results were obtained by operating the vibrating-wire sensor in both forced and free decay modes. The estimated precision of the viscosity measurements, in either mode of operation, is ±0.5%, for temperat...


Vibrating-wire viscometers for liquids at high pressures

Oliveira, Carla Padrel de; Assael, Marc J.; Papadaki, Maria; Wakeham, William A.

The design and operation of two independent vibrating-wire viscometers are described. The instruments are intended for operation in the liquid phase at pressures up to 300 MPa and have been designed specifically for this purpose using the detailed theory of the device. Extensive evidence is adduced to demonstrate that the operation of the viscometers is consistent with the theory. Although the instruments attai...
