The OnLine Rheometer (OLR) is designed to continuously measure, plot, and report the rheological properties of drilling, completion, and fracturing fluids in the pipe. The OLR uses a squeezeflow technique; it measures storage and loss moduli by imposing a small cyclic deformation on a liquid sample at a variety of frequencies, from 1-100 Hz. Quality control parameters and user interface are based on ?* (complex viscosity [Pa s]), as measured by the OLR. The response of the liquid is measured and displayed in terms of G' (storage modulus [Pa]), G'' (loss modulus [Pa]), d (phase angle [Degrees]), and n*.
