Abstract

See full text

Systems and methods for measuring the viscosity of a fluid comprises an oscillation cylinder having an inner surface, wherein the oscillation cylinder includes a fluid; a fixed piston having a first stopper disposed within the oscillation cylinder and forming a seal with the inner surface; an adjustable piston having a second stopper disposed within the oscillation cylinder and forming a seal with the inner surface; a chamber defined between the first stopper and second stopper; a bob formed within the chamber having a sensor which measures an axial shear force induced by the oscillating cylinder which is indicative of the apparent viscosity of the fluid in the chamber; and a motor capable of linearly translating the oscillation cylinder.
