Viscosity Measurement Apparatus

Viscosity Measurement Apparatus

Product Description

Viscosity Measurement Apparatus demonstrates viscosity experiment and elicit the interest of students in the field of fluid mechanics. This apparatus verifies Stoke’s law and helps us to understand the motion of object inside the fluid. Here, falling sphere method is used to determine the viscosity of liquid. This method describes a general procedure for the determination of not only the viscosity but the density of the liquid as well. This activity enables us to observe the relative viscosity and density of liquids like glycerin, castor oil, mustard oil etc. Our set-up covers both manual and automatic viscosity determination.
