Abstract

Methods and systems for characterizing multiple parameters of viscous fluid simultaneously are provided. By imposing an oscillatory deformation profile on a filament formed of the viscous fluid between two plates, a nonlinear fit to the deformation profile captured at different times is analyzed against a filament model dependent upon the plates radius, viscous fluid density, and the oscillation frequency of the imposed deformation profile. The Reynolds number, Weber number, and the aspect ratio of the viscous fluid are thus determined, for identifying the Newtonian fluid.
