Viscosity by a falling-cylinder viscometer

Input(s)

$\rho$: Density of Fluid $(\mathrm{ppg})$

$\boldsymbol{\rho}_{\boldsymbol{o}}$: Density of Slug (ppg)

g: Acceleration due to Gravity $\left(\mathrm{ft} / \mathrm{s}^{2}\right)$

$\kappa$: Ratio of Inner to Outer Radii (fraction)

$\mathrm{R}$: Outer Radius (ft)

$v_{\boldsymbol{o}}$: Slug Velocity $(\mathrm{ft} / \mathrm{s})$

Output(s)

$\mu$: Viscosity $(\mathrm{cP})$
