The Viscosity of Liquid Indium and Liquid Tin

Millais Culpin

Abstract

Measurements of the viscosity of liquid indium and liquid tin have been made, using the oscillating sphere viscometer. A preliminary set of measurements on bromine was made. The viscosity was determined over a range of temperature in each case, and the results compared with Andrade's theory of the viscosity of liquids. A comparison is also made between the many sets of values of the viscosity of tin already published.
