dc.description.abstractViscosity is a fundamental thermophysical property of liquids making it very important particularly in the industry. Capillary viscometers have been widely used for viscosity measurements in different applications, the most relevant being the definition of viscosity standards, traceable to the primary water viscosity standard, by metrological institutions and industrial applications, mostly for quality control. Practical viscometry is based on the internationally accepted primary standard value for the kinematic viscosity of water at 20ºC and atmospheric pressure, which has been measured using capillary viscometers [1]. However, due to the water surface tension, viscosity measurements which have been related to water as a primary standard, can be significantly affected. It is difficult to rigorously assess the surface tension effects on capillary viscometers, and the practical way to avoid this problem is to use long capillaries, which are not appropriate for routine measurements [1-3]. After several experimental studies, using different types of viscometers, the usual procedure to correct surface tension effects in capillary viscosity measurements adopted by different authors, is to employ an empirical expression [1-4]. Additionally, other types of problems exist as the need to perform a kinetic energy correction which must also be taken into consideration [1]. The main goal of this work was to perform the calibration of a suspended-level, or Ubbelohde, capillary viscometer, which is not a long capillary viscometer, as well as the study of corrections to be used for the measurements performed with it. The experimental work covers the calibration of that Ubbelohde capillary viscometer, the evaluation of the uncertainty of the corresponding viscometer constant and the overall uncertainty of the measurements performed with it. This study includes the evaluation of the necessary corrections for kinetic energy and surface tension effects and, finally, the analysis of the case of a set of measurements performed with n-tetradecane. The ultimate purpose of this work is to obtain the lowest uncertainty for the Ubbelohde capillary viscometer 541 01/Ia, and to understand the need for the corrections that must be considered when using capillary viscometers and how they should be applied.pt_PT
