The temperature sensing probe is in contact with the material whose temperature is being measured.This device is output.

For a Newtonian fluid in a concentric cylinder rotary viscometer in whichthe shear stress is measured at the inner cylinder surface (such as the apparatus described in 6.1),

The SI unit of viscosity is the pascal second (Pas).3.2 Definitions of Terms Specific to This Standard:D6896 1723.2.1 calibration oils, nthose oils that establish
25、 the instruments reference framework of apparent viscosity versus speed, fromwhich the apparent viscosities of test oils are determined.3.2.2 test oil, nany oil for which the apparent viscosity and yield stress are to be determined by this test method.3.2.3 used oil, nan oil which has been used in a
26、n operating engine.3.2.4 yield stress, nthe shear stress required to initiate flow.3.2.4.1 DiscussionFor all Newtonian fluids and some non-Newtonian fluids, the yield stress is zero. An oil can have a yield stress that is a functionof its low-temperature cooling rate, soak time, and temperature. Yie
27、ld stress measurement by this test method determines onlywhether the test oil has a yield stress of at least 35 Pa; a yield stress below 35 Pa is considered to be insignificant for engine oils.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 A used engine oil sample is heated at 80 C and then vigorously agitated. The s
28、ample is then cooled at a programmedcooling rate to a final test temperature. A low torque is applied to the rotor shaft to measure the yield stress. A higher torque isthen applied to determine the apparent viscosity of the sample.5. Significance and Use5.1 When an engine oil is cooled, the rate and
29、 duration of cooling can affect its yield stress and viscosity. In this laboratory test,used engine oil is slowly cooled through a temperature range where wax crystallization is known to occur, followed by relativelyrapid cooling to the final test temperature. As in other low temperature rheological
30、 tests such as Test Methods D3829, D4684, andD5133, a preheating condition is required to ensure that all residual waxes are solubilized in the oil prior to the cooldown (thatis, remove thermal memory). However, it is also known that highly sooted used diesel engine oils can experience a sootagglome
31、rization phenomenon when heated under quiescent conditions. The current method uses a separate preheat and agitationstep to break up any soot agglomerization that may have occurred prior to cooldown. The viscosity of highly sooted diesel engineoils as measured in this test method have been correlate

The cooling profile described in Table X1.1 is based onthe viscosity properties of the ASTM Pumpability Reference Oils (PRO). This series of oils includes oi
33、ls with normallow-temperature flow properties and oils that have been associated with low-temperature pumpability problems (2-7).6. Apparatus6.1 Mini-Rotary Viscometer5,an apparatus that consists of one or more viscometric cells in a temperature-controlled aluminumblock. Each cell contains a calibra
34、ted rotor-stator set. The rotor shall have a crossbar near the top of the shaft extending in bothdirections far enough to allow the locking pin (6.6) to stop rotation at successive half turns. Rotation of the rotor is achieved byan applied load acting through a string wound around the rotor shaft.6.
35、1.1 The mini-rotary viscometric cell has the following typical dimensions:Diameter of rotor 17.06 mm 0.08 mmLength of rotor 20.00 mm 0.14 mmInside diameter of cell 19.07 mm 0.08 mmRadius of shaft 3.18 mm 0.13 mmRadius of string 0.10 mm6.1.2 Cell CapA cover inserted into the top of the viscometer cel
36、l to minimize room air circulation into the cells is requiredfor thermometrically cooled instruments. The cell cap is a stepped cylinder 38 mm 6 1 mm in length made of a low thermalconductivity material, for example, thermoplastic such as acetyl copolymers that have known solvent resistivity and are
37、 suitablefor use between the temperature ranges of this test method. The top half is 28 mm 6 1 mm in diameter and the bottom half is 19mm in diameter with a tolerance consistent with the cell diameter. The tolerance on the bottom half is such that it will easily fitinto cell but not allow cap to con
38、tact rotor shaft. The piece has a center bore of 11 mm 6 1 mm. The cap is made in two halvesto facilitate placement in the top of the cell.6.1.2.1 Cell caps shall not be used in the direct refrigeration instruments, since such use would block the flow of cold, dry airinto the stators to keep them fr
