Spirit Level
Spirit-It is used in Mechanical Engineers Level. What is its uniqueness to be used such applications. clarify.
In mechanical industry, for accurate measurement of flatness of a surface, alignment of machines, etc a simple (spirit-fluid filled in a graduated tube) level measuring instrument used is known as ‘Spirit Level’ in practical terms. Even it is in building construction masonary works-It is also fitted on to measuring tape body.
Many other similar liquids also qualify to be used. Specifically, is there any technical reason to prefer ‘spirit’ over others.
This is purely related to science & technology. Serious answers only please.
You need a liquid with several properties, not necessarily in this order:
It must not freeze in cold weather.
It should have low viscosity so that it flows easily (You would not want to use something like treacle which would take forever to settle)
It should not adhere strongly to the glass of the tube.
It should have sufficient surface tension so that it does not form more than one bubble.
It should be cheap.
