very thick liquid, slow to move when it is poured) very thin liquid, flows and pours fast) to high viscosity (i.e. The most commonly used unit is centiStokes (cSt) but some methods may report in mm 2/sīelow you can see the viscosity of some common liquids – ranging from low viscosities (i.e. What units is Kinematic Viscosity reported in?
The time taken for the liquid to flow is measured – this could be the time it takes to travel through a capillary, or through a cup with a hole in the base. This is different to Dynamic viscosity, which measures the resistance of another object moving through the liquid. Kinematic Viscosity specifically is a measure of resistance to the liquid moving. Put simply, this means how thick or thin the liquid is – how easily it flows. The definition of viscosity is a measure of a liquid’s resistance to movement. We’ve explored some of the most commonly asked questions about viscosity testing what is kinematic viscosity? How is it measured? How does temperature affect viscosity? And how can you make sure your viscosity measurements are accurate? A glass capillary viscometer, used in Kinematic Viscosity measurements Kinematic Viscosity measurements are used in quality control and characterization tests in a wide range of fields.
