To determine the coefficient of viscosity of rotating cylinder method
The Coefficient of Viscosity Apparatus by Rotating Cylinder Method is an educational physics laboratory instrument designed to determine the coefficient of viscosity of a liquid by studying the resistance experienced by a rotating cylinder immersed in the liquid. The apparatus demonstrates the relationship between viscous drag, rotational motion, and the internal friction of fluids.
In this experiment, a cylinder is rotated in a liquid under the specified experimental conditions. The resistance offered by the liquid to the cylinder’s motion is measured or determined using the apparatus arrangement. The relevant observations, including rotational speed and the dimensions of the experimental setup, are then used with the appropriate theoretical formula to calculate the coefficient of viscosity.
This apparatus helps students understand viscous forces, fluid resistance, and the behaviour of liquids under rotational motion. It is suitable for physics practicals and fluid mechanics experiments in schools, colleges, universities, and engineering institutions. SPAQ LABS provides educational laboratory equipment for practical learning and experimental investigation.
Aim: Determine the coefficient of viscosity of the stated fluid using the method specified in the experiment title.
