What is shear strain rate?
Think about how angles change as layers of fluid slide over each other.
Define linear strain.
Consider how a fluid's length might change as it flows.
What does the shear strain rate measure?
Think about the angle changes in fluid layers.
True or False: Linear strain is related to the change in angle between lines.
Review the definitions of both terms.
A fluid flows through a pipe whose diameter changes from 5 cm to 10 cm. Calculate the expected linear strain if the fluid maintains a constant volume.
Remember the relationship between diameter and area.
The angle between two lines of flow in a fluid changed from 90 degrees to 80 degrees over 2 seconds. Calculate the shear strain rate. Discuss its implications in a flow application.
Express your answer in a consistent angular measure.
