The construction of a narrow-gap, concentric cylinder Couette flow system for use in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and velocimetry experiments is presented. The system can be operated over the range of temperatures 5- C and can produce shear rates up to , yet is compatible with the demands of high-spatial-resolution MRI . Details of the design and device construction are given and typical results for a distilled water sample at a shear rate of and a temperature of C are presented. The potential for further work is discussed.
