Air viscosity means that the air is thicker than normal. When the air is thick like this, it can cause breathing problems for people with Asthma and other lung conditions.

What happens to viscosity of water and air when subjected to changes in temperature pressure?

As temperature increases, the viscosity of water decreases, meaning it flows more easily, while the viscosity of air increases slightly due to lower density at higher temperatures. Conversely, when pressure increases, the viscosity of water remains relatively unchanged, but the viscosity of air increases significantly due to the compression of gas molecules. Overall, temperature has a more pronounced effect on the viscosity of water, while pressure primarily affects air.


What has a lower viscosity water or air?

Water has a higher viscosity than air. This means water is thicker and more resistant to flow, while air is less resistant and flows more easily.

What is co-efficient of dynamic viscosity for compressed air?

The coefficient of dynamic viscosity for compressed air is approximately 1.8 x 10^-5 kg/(m*s) at 25°C. It may vary slightly depending on the temperature and pressure of the compressed air. This coefficient represents the resistance to flow within the compressed air system.

What is difference between leak down test with water or air?

Water, with surface tension and higher viscosity than air, will not show the smallest leaks air will show. For very sensitive testing, helium is also used.
