Scope*1.1 This test method specifies a procedure for the determination of the kinematic viscosity, , of liquid petroleum products, bothtransparent and opaque, by measuring the time for a volume of liquid to flow under gravity through
4、a calibrated glass capillaryviscometer. The dynamic viscosity, , can be obtained by multiplying the kinematic viscosity, , by the density, , of the liquid.NOTE 1For the measurement of the kinematic viscosity and viscosity of bitumens, see also Test Methods D2170 and D2171.NOTE 2ISO 3104 corresponds
5、to Test Method D445 03.1.2 The result obtained from this test method is dependent upon the behavior of the sample and is intended for application toliquids for which primarily the shear stress and shear rates are proportional (Newtonian flow behavior). If, however, the viscosityvaries significantly
6、with the rate of shear, different results may be obtained from viscometers of different capillary diameters. Theprocedure and precision values for residual fuel oils, which under some conditions exhibit non-Newtonian behavior, have beenincluded.1.3 The range of kinematic viscosities covered by this
7、test method is from 0.2 mm2/s to 300 000 mm2/s (see Table A1.1) at alltemperatures (see 6.3 and 6.4). The precision has only been determined for those materials, kinematic viscosity ranges andtemperatures as shown in the footnotes to the precision section.1.4 The values stated in SI units are to be
8、regarded as standard. The SI unit used in this test method for kinematic viscosity ismm2/s, and the SI unit used in this test method for dynamic viscosity is mPas. For user reference, 1 mm2/s = 10-6 m2/s = 1 cStand 1 mPas = 1 cP = 0.001 Pas.1.5 WARNINGMercury has been designated by many regulatory a

For any particular viscometer covered by this test method, the time of flow ofa fixed volume of liquid is directly proportional to its kinematic viscosity, , where = , and is the dynamic viscosity.4. Summary of
41、 Test Method4.1 The time is measured for a fixed volume of liquid to flow under gravity through the capillary of a calibrated viscometerunder a reproducible driving head and at a closely controlled and known temperature. The kinematic viscosity (determined value)is the product of the measured flow t
42、ime and the calibration constant of the viscometer. Two such determinations are needed fromwhich to calculate a kinematic viscosity result that is the average of two acceptable determined values.5. Significance and Use5.1 Many petroleum products, and some non-petroleum materials, are used as lubrica
43、nts, and the correct operation of theequipment depends upon the appropriate viscosity of the liquid being used. In addition, the viscosity of many petroleum fuels isimportant for the estimation of optimum storage, handling, and operational conditions. Thus, the accurate determination ofviscosity is
44、essential to many product specifications.D445 17a36. Apparatus6.1 ViscometersUse only calibrated viscometers of the glass capillary type, capable of being used to determine kinematicviscosity within the limits of the precision given in the precision section.6.1.1 Viscometers listed in Table A1.1, wh
45、ose specifications meet those given in Specifications D446 and in ISO 3105 meetthese requirements. It is not intended to restrict this test method to the use of only those viscometers listed in Table A1.1. AnnexA1 gives further guidance.6.1.2 Automated ViscometersAutomated apparatus may be used as l

Any viscometer, temperature measuring device, temperature control, temperature controlledbath or timing device incorporated in the automated apparatus shall conform to the specification for these components as
47、 statedin Section 6 of this test method. Flow times of less than 200 s are permitted, however, a kinetic energy correction shall be appliedin accordance with Section 7 on Kinematic Viscosity Calculation of Specifications D446. The kinetic energy correction shall notexceed 3.0 % of the measured visco
48、sity. The automated apparatus shall be capable of determining kinematic viscosity of a certifiedviscosity reference standard within the limits stated in 9.2.1 and Section 17. The precision has been determined for automatedviscometers tested on the sample types listed in 17.3.1 and is no worse than t
49、he manual apparatus (that is, exhibits the same orless variability).NOTE 3Precision and bias of kinematic viscosity measurements for flow times as low as 10 s has been determined for automated instruments testedwith the sample types listed in 17.3.1.6.2 Viscometer HoldersUse viscometer holders to enable all viscometers which have the upper meniscus directly above thelower meniscus to be suspended vertically within 1 in all directions.
