Evaluation of Influence of Wall Slip on Measurement of Rheological Parameters by Means of a Hydrodynamic Measuring System
The technique for processing the output signals of hydrodynamic measuring system of rheological parameters of non-Newtonian fluids is presented in the paper. Hydrodynamic measuring system is built on four serially connected bridge hydrodynamic converters. The paper shows that the error of determination of rheological parameters directly from the experimental flow characteristic in consistent variables is considerable if the non-Newtonian fluid has the effect of wall slip on measuring surfaces of sensors of bridge transducers.
