Design of a high precision falling ball viscometer

Résumé

The increase in uncertainty throughout the viscosity scale being the principal disadvantage of capillary viscometry, the BNM-LNE decided to develop an absolute falling-ball viscometer making it possible to cover a wide range of viscosity while keeping a weak uncertainty. The measurement of viscosity then rests on the speed limit measurement of falling ball, corrected principal identified effects (edge effects, inertial effects, etc). An experimental bench was developed in order to reach a relative uncertainty of the order of 10^-3 to the measure of viscosity. This bench must allow to observe the trajectory of the ball inside a cylindrical tube filled with liquid for which the viscosity is to be measured, and to obtain the variations in speed throughout the fall in order to determine the area where the speed limit is reached.
