Abstract
An experimental system was constructed for the simultaneous measurement of density and viscosity of fluids by microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) sensor. The experimental system determined the density and viscosity data via the measurement for sensor resonance frequency and quality factor. The density and viscosity of toluene and n-heptane were obtained. The measurements were carried out for five times in the temperature range from 283.15 to 303.15 K and under pressure of 0.1 MPa. The experimental data were compared with those of the literatures. The mean absolute deviation and the maximum deviation for density reach 0.93% and 1.26%; the mean absolute deviation and the maximum deviation for viscosity reach 7.08% and 16.67% respectively.
