Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Conversion Tables for Various Viscosimeters: Using the Saybolt Universal Viscosimeter as the Standard; A Thesis
The cry of the present age of the engineer is for standardization Perhaps the one field of activities which has been neglected is the testing of lubricants. In the past, various types of viscoaiineters have been used for testing the viscosity of oils, which has created a great deal of confusion. At present time the tendancy of the larger oil manufactors is to use a standard type of viscoainieter. It is therefore the aim of the writers to study the various viscosircetars at their coEmand and to construct tables and curves whereby the viscosity of any meter can be readily transfered into the corresponding value on the Saybolt Universal Viscosimeter.
We wish to express our thanks to Prof. James Clinton Peebles for his cooperation and suggestions.
