La engañosa simplicidad del "método de Stokes" para medir viscosidades

Abstract: Enfocamos la atención sobre la relación entre magnitudes que suele utilizarse en los laboratorios docentes para determinar el coeficiente de viscosidad de un líquido con el método de Stokes. El experimento es de bajo costo y de aparente realización sencilla. Pero la sencillez proviene de las exigentes condiciones que el sistema debe cumplir para que sea lícito suponer la validez de la relación entre magnitudes que se emplea. Compartimos información y reflexiones sobre algunos aspectos puntuales vinculados a es… Show more

“…Model 2 (viscous friction and edge effect correction). As a second step, we take into account the Ladenburg edge effect correction for the sphere [13]. However, we retain for the chain the previous coefficient B 1 since we consider that the edge effect on it is negligible when compared to that of the sphere, as a consequence of its lower cross-sectional area (this effectively amounts to consider the chain as an infinitely thin wire).…”

“…Model 3 (drag force with constant coefficient). Recalling model 3 for the single sphere, we now consider the regime in which the fluid motion is developing a turbulent behaviour, whereby viscous friction forces become negligible with respect to drag forces [13]. In this case, a fixed drag coefficient C 0.4 D = is proposed for the drag force on the sphere according to our measured values of Re (see figure 2 and section 4).…”

“…Existem fatores críticos para a obtenção de valores exatos de η por este método [31]. O mais importante em nosso experimento foram os altos números de Reynolds (R e ) envolvidos: 2 < R e < 23.…”

“…Esse método para a obtenção do coeficiente de viscosidade foi analisado por Sandoval, Caram e Salinas [2], doravante SCS, que incorporaram a influência do diâmetro da coluna sobre o movimento das esferas e corroboraram a advertência de que a expressão da força de Stokes somenteé adequadaàs esferas muito pequenas, de menor velocidade terminal, cujo movimento no fluidoé tecnicamente caracterizado por números de Reynolds, definidos adiante, inferiores a 0,5 [3]. Soares et al [4] também usaram a força de Stokes no estudo da queda de esferas em um meio viscoso para baixos números de Reynolds, mas propuseram queà massa da esfera fosse adicionada a massa do fluido por ela arrastada.…”
