Apparatus for continuously measuring the viscosity of a fluid, especially of a liquid fuel.

摘要

The apparatus comprises a measuring chamber (4) passed through by the fluid, in which there is a device with a double air-gap, comprising a primary cylindrical core (12) driven by a turbine (13) and a secondary cylindrical core (14) driven in the opposite direction by a turbine (15). Two sensors (16) and (17) make it possible to measure the speeds of rotation of the cores (12) and (14). The information provided by the sensors is transmitted to a computer. The invention is used to regulate the automatic controls of an injection pump for a Diesel engine or boiler burner. <IMAGE>
