FAQ

What is the Eddy Viscosity?
The Eddy Viscosity is a measure of the turbulent momentum transfer in a fluid, influencing the flow characteristics around surfaces in hypersonic conditions. Eddy Viscosity is usually measured using the Poise for Dynamic Viscosity. Note that the value of Eddy Viscosity is always positive.
Can the Eddy Viscosity be negative?
No, the Eddy Viscosity, measured in Dynamic Viscosity cannot be negative.
What unit is used to measure Eddy Viscosity?
Eddy Viscosity is usually measured using the Poise[P] for Dynamic Viscosity. Pascal Second[P], Newton Second per Square Meter[P], Millinewton Second per Square Meter[P] are the few other units in which Eddy Viscosity can be measured.
