Viscosity of Fluid or Oil for Capillary Tube Method evaluator uses Viscosity of Fluid = (pi*Liquid Density*[g]*Difference in Pressure Head*4*Radius^4)/(128*Discharge in Capillary Tube*Length of Pipe) to evaluate the Viscosity of Fluid, Viscosity of Fluid or Oil for Capillary Tube Method depends on the pressure difference across the tube, the flow rate of the fluid, the length and radius of the capillary tube, and the time taken for a known volume of fluid to flow through the tube. Viscosity is directly proportional to the pressure difference and the time taken for a given volume to flow, and inversely proportional to the flow rate and the fourth power of the tube radius. Viscosity of Fluid is denoted by μ symbol.
