Sampling5.1 Accurate sampling, whether of the complete contents oronly parts thereof, is extremely important from the standpointof

19、 evaluating the quality of the product sampled. In most cases,the detection of contaminants that are not ordinarily disperseduniformly through the liquid being sampled such as water orsolid particles, necessitates taking samples at specific locationswhere the contaminants are likely to be found. For

20、 a liquidhaving a specific gravity less than one, water and otherimpurities are most likely to be found on the bottom; whereasin the case of liquids having a specific gravity greater than one,these impurities are most likely to be found on the surface.5.2 Sampling Fluids Exhibiting Newtonian Viscosi
