Name: George Nogueira de Oliveira – D14124795 Co-worker: Niamh Ryan Title: Fluid Properties – Density and Viscosity Abstract Fluids are substances that play an important role in human life. Thus, the need of measure and recognize some of its properties is crucial. Among some of them it is the viscosity. Nowadays, different methods are applied in industrial and academic level to measure the viscosity of fluids. In this experiment a falling sphere viscometer was utilized to analyze the viscosity of three fluids. In addition the viscosity of fluids in different temperatures was obtained utilizing a rotating viscometer. The results showed that just the values from one of the fluids can be trustful.
