3.1 Temperature Control System
To measure the physical and thermal properties of fluid at various operating
temperatures, a proper system to maintain a specified temperature is required. This is
achieved through a constant temperature bath form Brookfield Engineering (model TC-
550MX), see Figure 3.1. This temperature bath can be operated within the range of
−20°C to 135°C with a temperature stability of 0.07°C. The temperature bath has a
reservoir that can hold 7.0 liters of fluid. An opening at the top allows measurement of
different properties by submerging the sample into the bath or the fluid can be circulated
through a tube to other instruments requiring a temperature controlled environment
through constant speed pump.
