  10. Viscosity couette flow viscosity - Newtonian apparent viscosity - non-Newtonian Newtonian Fluids • Most of the common fluids (water, air, oil, etc.) • “Linear” fluids Non-Newtonian Fluids • Special fluids (e.g., most biological fluids, toothpaste, some paints, etc.) • “Non-linear” fluids 10

  11. Viscosity The SI physical unit of dynamic viscosity m is the pascal-second (Pa·s), which is identical to 1 kg·m−1·s−1. The cgs physical unit for dynamic viscosity m is the poise (P) 1 P = 1 g·cm−1·s−1 It is more commonly expressed as centipoise (cP). The centipoise is commonly used because water has a viscosity of 1.0020 cP @ 20 C The relation between poise and pascal-seconds is: 1 cP = 0.001 Pa·s = 1 mPa·s In many situations, we are concerned with the ratio of the viscous force to the inertial force, the latter characterized by the fluid density ρ. This ratio is characterized by the kinematic viscosity, defined as follows: where μ is the dynamic viscosity, and ρ is the density. Kinematic viscosity n has SI units [m2·s−1]. 11/7/2014 11
