Abstract

A comprehensive analysis of the interaction between an AT-cut quartz crystal resonator and a viscous fluid is presented. The analysis, which includes peizoelectric effects, assumes a liquid of finite extent and therefore could also be used to study thin film of viscous liquids. A novel continuous flow cell system was designed and fabricated to monitor viscosity using an 11-MHz quartz crystal resonator. Measured data for frequency shifts of aqueous solutions of alcohols and sugars are in excellent agreement with theory.
