FIBER CONTENT ANALYSIS METHOD AND SYSTEM

摘要

A method to determine fiber content of a fluid specimen involving measuring an initial torque development characteristic of the fluid specimen at specified conditions; and comparing the measured initial torque development characteristic of the specimen to initial torque development characteristics of control fluids of known fiber content at the specified conditions to estimate the fiber content of the fluid specimen. Also disclosed is a system to determine fiber content of a fluid specimen, involving a rheometer to measure the initial torque development characteristic of the fluid specimen at specified conditions; and a database of yield points of control fluids of known fiber content at the specified conditions for comparison with the measured yield point to estimate the fiber content of the fluid specimen.
