Abstract

In the proposed work, the design of a viscometer designed to control thixotropic liquids that change fluidity as a result of applying a mechanical load is considered. The main distinguishing feature of this device: the inner side surface of the measuring vessel is made in the form of an ellipse, and during the measurement process two probes are immersed in the test sample, one of which is used to destroy the structure, and the second to measure the mechanical resistance (viscosity) of the sample. The viscometer can be used to study the thixotropic properties of oils and gel-forming systems used in enhanced oil recovery technologies
