MUMBAI, India, July 31 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202411095720 A) filed by Schneider Electric Systems Usa, Inc. on December 04, 2024, for Viscometer, Industrial Process Control System With In-Line Viscometer, And Method Of Viscosity Measurement.
Inventors include Poleni, Ravi; and Kale, Shripad Janardan.
The application for the patent was published on July 24, 2026, under issue no. 30/2026.
Abstract: A viscometer for measuring viscosity of a fluid uses one or more ultrasound transducers to conduct an ultrasound-based time-of-flight measurement process in which an ultrasound pulse is transmitted into the fluid at a first time and received by a transducer at a second time. A viscometer has at least one transducer receptacle configured for being immersed in the fluid. The at least one transducer receptacle receives one or more ultrasound transducers and fluidly isolates the transducer(s) from the fluid. The viscometer enclosure is shaped and arranged so that, when the ultrasound-based time-of-flight measurement process is conducted, the ultrasound pulse travels a predefined distance through the fluid from where the ultrasound pulse is transmitted to where the ultrasound pulse is received, whereby a time of flight of the ultrasound pulse from when the ultrasound pulse is transmitted to when the ultrasound pulse is received indicates the viscosity of the fluid.
