APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR DETECTING A PROPERTY OF A FLUID
摘要
<p>An apparatus comprises a tensioned sample tube that receives a fluid sample, the tensioned sample tube has a pre-determined tension applied thereto. A vibration source and a vibration detector are coupled to the tensioned sample tube. A method of estimating a property of a fluid comprises tensioning a sample tube to a predetermined tension. A sample of the fluid is received in the tensioned sample tube. The tensioned sample tube is vibrated. A resonant frequency of the tensioned sample tube is detected. The property of the fluid is estimated based on the detected resonant frequency of the tensioned sample tube.</p>
