Viscosity in Dynamics of Fluid Flow Formulas

Viscosity is a physical property of fluids that describes their resistance to flow or internal friction. And is denoted by μ. Viscosity is usually measured using the Poise for Dynamic Viscosity. Note that the value of Viscosity is always positive.

FAQ

What is the Viscosity?

Viscosity is a physical property of fluids that describes their resistance to flow or internal friction. Viscosity is usually measured using the Poise for Dynamic Viscosity. Note that the value of Viscosity is always positive.

Can the Viscosity be negative?

No, the Viscosity, measured in Dynamic Viscosity cannot be negative.

What unit is used to measure Viscosity?

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 Viscosity can be measured.
