Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to document the development of a test stand that enables experimentally determining the viscosity of the fluid used in a hydraulic system. This test stand also doubles as a method for determining the influence of the temperature and pressure on this parameter.

The resulting setup allows full control of the system while also measuring and processing the measured data. For the core of this type of system a microcontroller was selected. High performance transducers are used for ensuring accurate measurements, they provide a proportional electrical output. The microcontroller firmware mostly runs as a command processor, a Lab View program is responsible for communicating with it in order to acquire data and control the system variables in a predefined sequence.
