Two shear stress calibration methods for the Haake Rotovisko Model RV1 were tested for non‐Newtonian shear‐thinning fluids. Determination of a shear stress calibration constant for each shear rate provided a significant improvement over the manufacturer's calibration method when both methods were compared with corresponding data generated with the Weissenberg Rheogoniometer.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
