463. Changes with temperature in the viscosity of whole milk

Abstract

1. The results of experiments on the changes with temperature in the relative viscosity and viscosity of whole milk have been considered. 2. Some inconsistencies have been traced and amendments proposed. 3. It has been suggested that values for the relative viscosity and viscosity of whole milk cannot usefully be regarded as independent of the experimental circumstances in which the observations were obtained. 4. Empirical curves have been calculated for the viscosity-temperature relations, in forms convenient for practical use in circumstances similar to those of the experiments examined.
