Abstract:
A viscosity measuring instrument for measuring ceramic slurries, e.g. in a casting tank, with a probe having an elbow and presenting a transducer part in substantial alignment with a flow direction of the ceramic slurry relative to the active part and a barrier orthogonal to such relative movement direction is interposed in front of the transducer part by one or more stand-off rods to form a partial enclosure that moderates flow to the active part and provides a long term stable measuring capability.
