a glass or steel ball rolls down at almost vertical glass tube containing the test liquid at a known constant temperature.
Falling sphere (Hoepller Falling Ball)
The rate at which a ball of a particular density and diameter fall is an inverse function of the viscosity of the sample
Falling sphere (Hoepller Falling Ball)
– the sample is placed at the center of theplate which is then raised into a position under the cone
