TY - JOUR AB - PROCEEDINGS OF THE PHYSIOLOGICAL SOCIETY 11 December differential viscometer. J. H. SHAXBY By The apparatus consists of two horizontal tubes AB and capillary CD in so that arranged series, a I fed in at one liquid end A flows through the tube AB to a reservoir BC at the of the junction two from this tubes; reservoir a second II is liquid led through the second CD to the capillary final exit. The reservoir is filled with completely and to it, liquid is attached a of gauge kind suitable for any small measuring of changes pressure. The initial pressure at A is kept positive and constant, the final pressure at D is atmospheric. Let P be the pressure at A, and p the pressure at BC, the at D pressure zero. being With viscous flow the to pressure drive a given volume v in a given time through a given tube is proportional to v and to the viscosity of the liquid. Let 1 subscript refer to the tube AB and the liquid flowing to it, subscript 2 to CD and its liquid, which in practice is water, then P-p-x p k2'q2V, where the k's are constants depending on TI - PROCEEDINGS OF THE PHYSIOLOGICAL SOCIETY JF - The Journal of Physiology DO - 10.1113/jphysiol.1937.sp003577 DA - 1937-01-01 UR - https://www.deepdyve.com/lp/wiley/proceedings-of-the-physiological-society-e8t6voTskz SP - 19 EP - 24 VL - 91 IS - suppl DP - DeepDyve ER -
