Abstract:
1. A fluid measurement device, comprising: a) a fluid container configured for containing a fluid; b) a fluid flow inducing member configured for recirculating fluid flow within the fluid container; c) a disruption member for disrupting flow of the fluid, said disruption member being separate from said fluid flow inducing member and being attached to or protruding into the fluid container; d) a mixing region configured for substantial mixing of the fluid in the fluid container, said mixing region being induced by the fluid flow and the disruption member; e) a measuring region distinct from the mixing region and configured for providing streamlined flow of the fluid in the fluid container; and f) a property measuring device operatively associated with the measuring region, wherein the fluid is recirculated through the measuring region and the mixing region.
