Paper Details
Determination of capillary radius by flow measurement, one method for determining the radius of a capillary tube is by measuring the rate of flow of a Newtonian liquid through the tube. Find the radius of a capillary from the following flow data:
Length of capillary tube 50.02 cm
Kinematic viscosity of liquid 4.03 x 10?5 m2/s
Density of liquid 0.9552 x 103 kg/m3
Pressure drop in the horizontal tube 4.829 x l05 Pa
Mass rate of flow through tube 2.997 x 10?3 kg/s
What difficulties may be encountered in this method? Suggest some other methods for determining the radii of capillary tubes.
