Salinometer Physics And Calibration

Its printed title: Exhaustive Analysis of Glass Salinometers: Fluid Mechanics, Metrology, Fabrication, and Baumé Scale Calibration in Hypersaline Environments

The glass salinometer explained from first principles: why it floats upright, how its narrow stem is calibrated, how it is made now that lead ballast is being phased out, and how standards laboratories check it by Cuckow's method of weighing it in liquid. It also gives the history and arithmetic of the Baumé scale. The setting is laboratory and industrial measurement, and the values in its key tables, including the stages of a saltworks, dropped out in extraction, leaving the method without the numbers.
