Tube capillary

This is the essential characteristic for every lubricant. The kinematic viscosity is most often measured by recording the time needed for the oil to flow down a calibrated capillary tube. The viscosity varies with the pressure but the influence of temperature is much greater it decreases rapidly with an increase in temperature and there is abundant literature concerning the equations and graphs relating these two parameters. One can cite in particular the ASTM D 341 standard. 

The viscosity is determined by measuring the time it takes for a crude to flow through a capillary tube of a given length at a precise temperature. This is called the kinematic viscosity, expressed in mm /s. It is defined by the standards, NF T 60-100 or ASTM D 445. Viscosity can also be determined by measuring the time it takes for the oil to flow through a calibrated orifice standard ASTM D 88. It is expressed in Saybolt seconds (SSU).

Inside the capillary tube, the capillary pressure (P ) is the pressure difference between the oil phase pressure (PJ and the water phase pressure (P ) at the interface between the oil and the water. 

The reservoir is composed of pores of many different sizes, and can be compared to a system of capillary tubes of widely differing diameters, as shown below. 

A liquid of density 2.0 g/cm forms a meniscus of shape corresponding to /3 = 80 in a metal capillary tube with which the contact angle is 30°. The capillary rise is 0.063 cm. Calculate the surface tension of the liquid and the radius of the capillary, using Table II-l. 

Streaming potential measurements are to be made using a glass capillary tube and a particular electrolyte solution, for example, O.OIM sodium acetate in water. Discuss whether the streaming potential should or should not vary appreciably with temperature. 

Geankoplis [54] fabricated a porous medium for which the values of K, and are known a priori. This was accomplished by sealing a bundle of identical parallel cylindrical capillary tubes between the two chambers of a Wlcke-Kallenbach apparatus. Then the relevant flux relations are those which apply to a single cylindrical capillary, rather than a porous medium, and these are obtained by setting... 

When a more delicate fractional vacuum-distillation is required, the flask and column shown in Fig. ii(b), p. 26, may be used, the side-arm of the column being fitted directly into receiver C (Fig. 14). A rubber stopper must then be used to fit the flask on to the fractionating column, and it should also carry a capillary tube leading to the bottom of the flask, to provide the usual fine stream of bubbles to prevent bumping. 

Capillary tubes for low-pressure distillations are prepared by drawing out the lower end of the tube (Fig. 22(G)). 

Method. Prepare a paper strip from Whatman No i filter paper, as in the previous experiment, and draw a light pencil line about 3 cm. from the bottom cf. Fig. 25(B)). Mark three points A, B and C symmetrically on this line, if possible 2 cm. apart. Using the fine pipette, or a capillary tube, apply sufficient of solution (A) to the point A to give a damp spot about 0-5 cm. in diameter. Using a thoroughly washed pipette or a fresh capillary tube on each occasion, apply solution (B) and (C) to the points B and C respectively. Dry the strip in the air. 

Determination of Boiling-points. The following alternative methods are recommended, (a) Draw one drop of the liquid into a capillary tube so that the drop is about i cm. from one end. 

Hold the tube horizontally and quickly seal this end in a micro-burner. Attach the tube (with the open end upwards) to a thermometer in the melting-point apparatus (Fig. i(c), p. 3) so that the trapped bubble of air in the capillary tube is below the surface of the bath-liquid. Now heat the bath, and take as the b.p. of the liquid that temperature at which the upper level of the bubble reaches the level of the surface of the batn liquid. 

Fig. 32). Using a fine pipette insert about i cm. length of the liquid into the bottom of the tube. Now place in the tube A a fine inverted melting-point tube B of about i mm. diameter, sealed at the upper end. Fasten the capillary tube to the ther- Fio. 32. mometer by means of a rubber band and place in a melting-point apparatus. Heat slowly until a stream of bubbles rises from the bottom... 

Vapours which can be readily condensed e.g., chloroform, aniline, nitro-benzene, etc.) are readily detected by the device shown in Fig. 5 i(b). It is essentially a cold finger with a deep indentation or weU at the lower end. In this way two or three drops of liquid can easily be collected and removed by a capillary tube for qualitative tests. 

Add 15 g, of chloroacetic acid to 300 ml. of aqueous ammonia solution d, o-88o) contained in a 750 ml. conical flask. (The manipulation of the concentrated ammonia should preferably be carried out in a fume-cupboard, and great care taken to avoid ammonia fumes.) Cork the flask loosely and set aside overnight at room temperature. Now concentrate the solution to about 30 ml. by distillation under reduced pressure. For this purpose, place the solution in a suitable distilling-flask with some fragments of unglazed porcelain, fit a capillary tube to the neck of the flask, and connect the flask through a water-condenser and receiver to a water-pump then heat the flask carefully on a water-bath. Make the concentrated solution up to 40 ml. by the addition of water, filter, and then add 250 ml. of methanol. Cool the solution in ice-water, stir well, and set aside for ca. I hour, when the precipitation of the glycine will be complete. 

This is the value originally given by Fischer for the m.p. of maltosazone it is a value obtained, however, only if the capillary tube containing the material is placed in a bath previously heated to about 180° and the temperature then rapidly increased. The m.p. of most samples of maltosazone, when determined in the usual way, is 190-192 . 

Chill the concentrated solution of the amine hydrochloride in ice-water, and then cautiously with stirring add an excess of 20% aqueous sodium hydroxide solution to liberate the amine. Pour the mixture into a separating-funnel, and rinse out the flask or basin with ether into the funnel. Extract the mixture twice with ether (2 X25 ml.). Dry the united ether extracts over flake or powdered sodium hydroxide, preferably overnight. Distil the dry filtered extract from an apparatus similar to that used for the oxime when the ether has been removed, distil the amine slowly under water-pump pressure, using a capillary tube having a soda-lime guard - tube to ensure that only dry air free from carbon dioxide passes through the liquid. Collect the amine, b.p. 59-61°/12 mm. at atmospheric pressure it has b.p. 163-164°. Yield, 18 g. 

Fig. 41(A) and (b), p. 65) into which the ethereal extract is allowed to run from a dropping-funnel at approximately the rate at which the solvent is distilling. When the ether has been removed, fit a capillary tube and thermometer, and continue the distillation at water-pump pressure. The diethyl ester of collidine-3,5-dicarboxylic acid (II) distils as a pale golden oil, b.p. i76 178°/i4 mm. Yield, 5 g. from 6 g. of the ester (I). 

The air may be collected directly into a Hempel gas-burette (Fig. 76) and there measured. This burette consists of a glass tube H calibrated in ml. from the tap E downwards, and connected by a piece of rubber tubing to the reservoir R, the height of which can be adjusted. The tap E is a 3-way tap. by which the tube H can be connected directly through to the capillary tube above, or either tube can be connected through the left- hand end of the tap to the atmosphere.
