Determination of the viscosity of a fluid
The level of uncertainties depend on the specific characteristics of the tested fluids.
The calibration uncertainty is specific to the actual viscosity range.
The uncertainties inherent in the viscometers used are as follows:
- from 0.001 to 0.05 mm2.s-2: 0.5%
- from 0.05 to 5 mm2.s-2: 0.9%
- from 5 to 100 mm2.s-2: 1.2%
