We report a novel method to rapidly nucleate vapor in a liquid with an electrically pulsed wire that temporarily raises the temperature of nearby liquid. This temperature increase is sufficient to overcome the nucleation barrier to vapor formation by locally putting the system in a non-equilibrium superheated state. By observing the subsequent behavior of bubbles after nucleation and thermal relaxation,...
A non-linear interpretation is proposed for the vibrating wire (VW) viscometer operated with the transient or ringdown method. This new interpretation is motivated by the necessity of having an acceptable signal to noise ratio (SNR) such that a measurement can be performed in 1s. A large SNR is achieved by a large oscillation amplitude such that the requisite conditions for the linear interpretation...
