CENTENO, L. M.; CASTILLO, E.; BECERRA, L. O.  y  ROCHIN, A.. A magnetic suspension system for measuring liquid density. Ing. Investig. [online]. 2013, vol.33, n.1, pp.46-51. ISSN 0120-5609.

Density is a derived quantity of mass and length; it is defined as mass per volume unit and its SI unit is kg/m3. National metrology institutes have been designing and building their own magnetic suspension systems during the last 5 decades for making fluid density measurements; this has allowed them to carry out research into liquids and gases' physical characteristics. This paper was aimed at designing and developing a magnetic suspension system for a magnetic balance used in determining liquid density to be used in CENAM's metrology density laboratories.

Palabras clave : Hydrostatic weighing; density; magnetic suspension.
