Through classifies and analyzes the problems existing in the traditional liquid viscosity coefficientmeasuring instrument by means of the ball falling method. On the basis of the THONZ-1 liquid viscositcoefficient measuring instrument, the high-precision laser tube sensor is used to connect with themicrocontroller counting controller, and the collected data is transmitted to the computer through the seriaport,and the computer is used to scientifically and accurately process the experimental data. The viscosity coefficient of liquid is calculated with an efficient method. Meanwhile, in order to reduce the influence oiambient temperature on the measured value of liquid viscosity coefficient,the tester is placed in the thermostat.and the temperature of the thermostat is adjusted by the temperature controller.Thus , the uncertainty of themeasurement result due to the change of ambient temperature is controlled to the maximum extent by using themethod of real-time control of the experimental ambient temperature.
