(choose chapter or problem)

A capillary viscometer measures the time required for a specifi ed volume of liquid to fl ow through a small-bore glass tube, as in Fig. P6.17. This transit time is then correlated with fl uid viscosity. For the system shown, (a) derive an approximate formula for the time required, assuming laminar fl ow with no entrance and exit losses. (b) If L 5 12 cm, l 5 2 cm, 5 8 cm3 , and the fl uid is water at 208C, what capillary diameter D will result in a transit time t of 6 seconds? P6.17 Large reservoir l L D
