Frank,  ideally kv is measured in a glasstube Cannon viscometer, but you
need a temperature controlled bath. Take a look at viscosity cups instead.
Probably 30 percent reproducible, without a lot of fuss. How good do you
want to be? Kv tubes are good to 0.1 percent!

Dear Stovers,****

I have been asked a few time to determine the kinematic viscosity of the
remaining liquid from a methane production solution. ****

These are new words for me and looking at equipment there seem to be many
ways to determine viscosity and then calculators to convert to kinematic
units. ****

** **

For this matrix and the range needed any suggestions on inexpensive
equipment?****

And what is the conversion from distance traveled of a liquid(?) to
kinematic units? whatever that is.****

** **

Just looking into it to see if it’s something we want to do.****

Thanks for any help****
