This isn't really an official answer as I'm just speculating, but I think industries might adjust the viscosity of liquids they use to adjust the rate of flow through a system to alter the results.
help to increase water tension by changing the viscosity of water
honey has high viscosity lah, and water has low viscosity. anything that resists flow has high viscosity...lah. honey has high viscosity lah, and water has low viscosity. anything that resists flow has high viscosity...lah.
The Si unit for viscosity is Pa·s = kg/(s·m).
Viscosity is the internal resistance of fluid to flow. Water has a thin viscosity (low resistance = flows easily) while oil has a thick viscosity (high viscosity = does not flow as easily). The term viscosity is usually used about the internal forces of the liquid itself.While not clear from the question, the force acting on the surface of a liquid is probably surface tension being thought of, but could also be gravity, depending on the context.I would say the answer to your question is: false.
Viscosity is the measure of friction between adjacent layers of materials.
the viscosity of the cup was horribly bad
Single viscosity is high quality oil. Mulit-viscosity oil is used for in the winter.
Low viscosity oil flows easier when it is cold but become thinner when it is hot.
Viscosity is the term used to describe how well a liquid flows. It measures the resistance of a liquid to flow and is influenced by factors like temperature and composition. Low viscosity liquids flow more easily, while high viscosity liquids flow more slowly.
You have to distinguish dynamic viscosity and kinematic viscosity. Different units are used for both - the standard (SI) unit for dynamic viscosity is Pascal x second, while the unit for kinematic viscosity is meter2/second.
Effective viscosity refers to the equivalent viscosity of a non-Newtonian fluid under specific flow conditions, while apparent viscosity is a term used to describe the measured viscosity of a non-Newtonian fluid, which may vary depending on the test method used. The effective viscosity takes into account the non-linear behavior of the fluid, while the apparent viscosity provides a simplified representation of its flow properties.
Yes, the Ostwalds viscometer can be used to measure the viscosity of more viscous oil.
Viscosity is the property used to classify media based on its normal consistency. Viscosity refers to the resistance of a fluid to flow, with high viscosity indicating a thicker consistency and low viscosity indicating a thinner consistency.
Relative viscosity is a measure of a fluid's resistance to flow compared to that of a reference fluid, often water. It is calculated by dividing the viscosity of the fluid by the viscosity of the reference fluid. Relative viscosity is commonly used in the study of fluid dynamics and in industries such as oil and gas, chemicals, and food processing.
It is used as a lubricant. Ex engine oil
Viscosity is the resistance for flow.Viscosity is the internal properties of fluids.Gear oil normally has larger viscosity.Kinematic viscosity is usuarally used to measure the viscosity of industrial lubricants.Dynamical viscosity (CCS) is usually used to measure low temperature viscosity for auto lubricants.Solvent or fuels has a low viscosity.Industrial oils folllow ISO viscosity classification.Auto lubes oils follow SAE viscosity classification.High viscosity usually means better protection for wear.Low viscosity usually means low friction resistance.
Yes, oil is viscous. Viscosity refers to a fluid's resistance to flow. The viscosity of oil affects its properties and applications by influencing how easily it can flow, lubricate, and transfer heat. Higher viscosity oils are typically used for applications requiring more lubrication and protection, while lower viscosity oils are used for faster flow and cooling.
