# Industrial Specification: Automated Viscosity Control and Mixing System

## 1. Technical Definition
Automated system for precise viscosity control during chemical mixing processes

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **1-5000 mPa·s viscosity range, 0.1-100 L/min flow rate, 20-80°C temperature range**. Failure boundary: **Viscosity measurement error exceeds ±2% of setpoint for &gt;30 seconds, flow rate deviation &gt;±5% of target, temperature control &gt;±1°C from setpoint**, Mechanism: **Non-Newtonian fluid shear-thinning behavior causing inaccurate viscosity readings, thermal expansion of sensor components altering calibration, particulate accumulation on viscometer surfaces creating measurement drift**.

### 2.1 Analytical Physics Model
Governed by the **Hansen Solubility Distance (HSP)**:

> **Primary Equation**: $R_a = \sqrt{4\Delta\delta_d^2 + \Delta\delta_p^2 + \Delta\delta_h^2}$  
> **Engineering Impact**: Predicts seal/gasket swelling when exposed to CIP chemicals.
