Non-contact optical hand-held viscosity sensor with incident angle and irradiation timing controls
Abstract:
This paper proposes a novel optical hand-held viscosity sensor based on a laser-induced capillary wave method that can be used as a noncontact and quick in situ viscometry of liquid samples. Incident angle and irradiation timing control systems were integrated into the hand-held viscosity sensor to robustly measure viscosity by detecting the optical signal in a hand-held condition. We report the stability evaluation of these systems under the hand-held condition. Finally, the proposed sensor's applicability to the hand-held viscometer was confirmed by measuring the viscosity distribution that the temperature gradient of the liquid sample caused.

Surface Tension, Capillary Action, and Viscosity
The various IMFs between identical molecules of a substance are examples of cohesive forces. The molecules within a liquid are surrounded by other molecules and are attracted equally in all directions by the cohesive forces within the liquid. However, the molecules on the surface of a liquid are attracted only by about one-half as many molecules. Because of the unbalanced molecular attractions on the surface molecules, liquids contract to form a shape that minimizes the number...
