Study on Measuring the Viscosity of Lubricating Oil by Viscometer Based on Hele - Shaw Principle

Abstract

In order to explore the method of accurately measuring the viscosity value of oil samples using the viscometer based on Hele-Shaw principle, three different measurement methods are designed in the laboratory, and the statistical characteristics of the measured values are compared, in order to get the best measurement method. The results show that the oil sample to be measured is placed in the magnetic field formed by the magnet, and the oil sample can be sucked from the same distance from the magnet. The viscosity value of the sample can be measured accurately.
