3 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
Define dynamic viscosity.
Think of how sticky something feels.
What happens to the viscosity of a liquid when heated?
Consider how boiling water behaves.
What does dynamic viscosity measure?
Think about what makes a fluid sticky.
True or False: Shear stress is independent of shear strain rate in Newtonian fluids.
Reference Newton's law of viscosity.
Assume you have a fluid with an initial viscosity of 0.01 Pa.s at 20°C. If it exhibits a decrease in viscosity proportional to a 0.5% change for every 10°C increase, calculate its viscosity at 60°C.
Consider temperature’s effect as given in the problem.
Explain how you would conduct an experiment to measure the dynamic viscosity of a non-Newtonian fluid and what observations you would make.
Think about the steps required in a standard fluid mechanics experiment.
