Dynamic Viscosity given Shear Stress Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Dynamic Viscosity = Shear Stress/Velocity Gradient
μ = τ/dvdy
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Dynamic Viscosity - (Measured in Pascal Second) - Dynamic Viscosity is the resistance to movement of one layer of a fluid over another.
Shear Stress - (Measured in Pascal) - Shear stress is defined as a force per unit area, acting parallel to the fluid layers.
Velocity Gradient - (Measured in Hertz) - Velocity Gradient is difference in velocity between adjacent layers of the fluid.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Shear Stress: 800 Newton per Square Meter --> 800 Pascal (Check conversion here)
Velocity Gradient: 10 Cycle per Second --> 10 Hertz (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

μ = τ/dvdy --> 800/10

Evaluating ... ...

μ = 80

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

80 Pascal Second -->80 Newton Second per Square Meter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

80 Newton Second per Square Meter <-- Dynamic Viscosity

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

What are the types of Viscosity in Fluid Mechanics?

Viscosity is a fundamental material property when studying fluid flow for any application. The two most common types of viscosity are dynamic and kinematic.
Dynamic Viscosity. Dynamic viscosity measures the ratio of the shear stress to the shear rate for a fluid.
Kinematic Viscosity. Kinematic viscosity measures the ratio of the viscous force to the inertial force on the fluid.
