stalagmometer (ˌstæləɡˈmɒmɪtə) n (General Physics) another name for staktometerTranslationsstalagmometer
stalagmometer[‚stal·ig′mäm·əd·ər] (engineering) An instrument for measuring the size of drops suspended from a capillary tube, used in the drop-weight method. Also known as stactometer; stalogometer. stalagmometer
stalagmometer [stal″ag-mom´ĕ-ter] an instrument for measuring surface tension by determining the exact number of drops in a given quantity of a liquid; the lower the surface tension, the smaller each drop will be, and the more drops will be in a given volume.stal·ag·mom·e·ter (stal'ăg-mom'ĕ-tĕr), An instrument for determining exactly the number of drops in a given quantity of liquid; used as a measure of the surface tension of a fluid (the lower the tension, the smaller the drops and, consequently, the more numerous in a given quantity of the fluid). Synonym(s): stactometer [G. stalagma, a drop, + metron, measure] stal·ag·mom·e·ter (stal'ăg-mom'ĕ-tĕr) An instrument for determining exactly the number of drops in a given quantity of liquid; used as a measure of the surface tension of a fluid (the lower the tension, the smaller the drops and, consequently, the more numerous in a given quantity of the fluid).
