where 0 T0 T S
0 is the viscosity at temperature T0 and
S is the Sutherlands constant.
S = 111 K for air.
VISCOSITY Cont.
An equation for the variation of liquid viscosity with
temperature is
= C e b/T
where C and b are empirical constants that require
viscosity data at two temperatures for evaluation.
In general the effect of pressure on the dynamic
viscosity of common gases is minimal for pressures
less than 10 atmospheres.
VISCOSITY
Units of Viscosity: {N.s/m2}
A common unit of viscosity is the poise, which is 1
dyne s/cm2 or 0.1 Ns/m2.
The viscosity of water at 20C is one centipoise (10-2
poise) or 10-3 Ns/m2.

NEWTONIAN VERSUS NON-NEWTONIAN
FLUIDS Cont.
In a non-Newtonian fluid there is a non linear
relation between the magnitude of applied shear
stress and the resulting rate of angular deformation.
Gases and most common liquids tend to be
Newtonian fluids, while thick, long-chained
hydrocarbons may be non-Newtonian.
If the fluid is considered to be incompressible and
non-viscous, it is then called an ideal fluid.
VAPOR PRESSURE
The pressure at which a liquid will boil is called its
vapor pressure. This pressure is a function of
temperature and increases with it.
Water boils at 100C at sea-level atmospheric pressure
(101.3 kPa).
Boiling can also occur in water at temperatures much
below 100C if the pressure in the water is reduced to
its vapour pressure.
The vapor pressure of water at 10C is 1.23 kPa.
ELASTICITY
When the pressure acting on a mass of fluid
increases, the fluid contracts; when the pressure
decreases, it expands.
The elasticity of a fluid is related to the amount
of deformation (expansion or contraction) for a
given pressure change.
The elasticity is often called the compressibility
of the fluid.
The compressibility is defined as change in
volume due to change in pressure
ELASTICITY Cont.
The compressibility of a fluid is expressed by its bulk
modulus of elasticity Ev.
The bulk modulus of the fluids is a function of both
temperature & pressure
The bulk modulus is analogous to the modulus of
elasticity for solid
However, for fluids it is defined on a volume basis
rather than in terms of stress-strain relation for solid
bodies
ELASTICITY Cont.
ELASTICITY Cont.
Compressibility of Liquids:
For water at 20C, Ev = 2.2 GPa, which corresponds
to a 0.045% change in volume for a change of 1 MPa
in pressure.
As a liquid is compressed, its resistance to further
compression increases.
At 3000 atm the value of Ev for water has doubled.
Ev for water is maximum (2210 - 2840) from 0.1 to
100 MN/m2 at 50C.
ELASTICITY Cont.
Compressibility of Gases:
As P1V1n = P2V2n = Constantan, for a perfect gas.
So Ev = nP; where n = 1 for Isothermal Process & n= k
for Isentropic process.
Thus, the elasticity of an ideal gas is proportional to
the pressure.
At a pressure of 100 kPa, the isothermal modulus of
elasticity for a gas is 100 kPa, and for an isentropic
process it is 140 kPa.
SURFACE TENSION
At the interface between a liquid and a gas, or two
immiscible liquids, a film or special layer seems to
form on the liquid, apparently owing to attraction of
liquid molecules below the surface. This stretching
force per unit length of the film required to form this
film is called the surface tension, . This tension acts
in the plane of the surface.
Surface tension for a water-air surface at room
temperature is 0.073 N/m and at 100C is 0.059 N/m.
SURFACE TENSION Cont.
The action of surface tension is to increase the
pressure (over and above atmospheric pressure)
within a droplet of liquid and bubble or within a
small liquid jet.
Transformation of a liquid jet into droplets and the
binding together of wetted granular material, such
as fine, sandy soil are due to surface tension.
Capillary action is caused by surface tension, it
causes the liquid to rise within a small vertical tube
that is partially immersed in it by following the
cohesion or adhesion phenomenon.
SURFACE TENSION Cont.
Cohesion enables a liquid to resist tensile stress, while
adhesion enables it to adhere to another body
If cohesion predominates, the liquid surface will be
depressed at the point of contact.
For example mercury, unlike water, is depressed below the
true level.
