25 Jan 1985TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a method for determining the viscosity of a fluid by measuring the time of fall of a needle through a predetermined distance of the fluid held in a container.
Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for determining the viscosity of Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids More particularly, the present invention relates to an apparatus and method for determining the viscosity of a fluid by measuring the time of fall of a needle through a predetermined distance of the fluid held in a container The method further provides exact equations according to a modified power law model and Ellis model for the calculation of viscosity, shear stress and shear rate
