Viscometer  Definition of viscosity  Introduction to viscometer  Applications Viscosity coefficients can be defined in two ways:  Dynamic viscosity  Kinematic viscosity Units of measurement: Centipoise (cP) 1 P = 0.1 Pa·s 1 cP = 1 mPa·s Units of measurement: Centistokes (cSt) 1 St = 1 cm2·s−1 = 10−4 m2·s−1 1 cSt = 1 mm2·s−1 = 10−6m2·s−1 Definition of viscosity Introduction to viscometer Viscometer is an instrument used to measure the viscosity of a fluid. Viscosity of liquids depend on flow conditions. Instrument controls rate of flow is called a rheometer. Fig 17. Illustration of viscosity Fig 19.
