"In connexion with the experimental determinatination of viscosity it should be noted that the flow of liquid is influenced in a very marked way by the driving pressure that is used. Bose and Rauert have made measurements at pressures from 0.005 to 2 kilograms per sq. cm., and find that whilst Poiseuille's Law holds for low pressures, very marked deviations are found when the pressure is increased, and in some instances the relative rates of flow are reversed, the more viscous of two liquids flowing more readily and becoming the less viscous at high pressure."
