1.4 Classification of Fluid Flows

 A fluid is a form of matter that is unable to withstand an applied shear stress ( τ ).  Given sufficient time, the smallest shear stress is capable of producing any change of shape.  This is in contrast to the behaviour of a solid , in which a definite value of the shearing stress must be applied to produce a given deformation.

 When the final state of steady motion has been achieved, a constant force is needed to keep the plate in motion.  Provided the flow is laminar, the force is given by Newton's law of viscosity :

 Fluids that obey Eq. (1.3) are termed Newtonian fluids  All gases and most simple liquids are Newtonian fluids  Fluids such as pastes, slurries and high polymers, which do not obey Eq. (1.3), are termed non-Newtonian fluids

μ = τ

 The fluid molecules at the plate are moving in the x -direction at a velocity of u (^) plate  By random molecular movement , some of these molecules will move in the y -direction

 As a result, the x -directed momentum will be transferred in the y - direction from the faster- to the slower-moving layer (momentum flux)  The momentum transferred to the next fluid layer causing that layer to move in the x -direction (at a lower velocity)  The resulting velocity profile will depend on the viscosity of the fluid

1.5 Viscosity (Appendix B – pages 292-296, 299)

 Viscosity ( μ ) is a function of temperature ( T )

 Use the value for μ at the system T

 As the temperature of a liquid increases:  The kinetic energy of the molecules increases.  The degree of molecular motion increases.  This decreases the short- range attractive forces between the molecules.  This results in a decrease in the viscosity of the liquid.

 As the temperature of a gas increases:  The kinetic energy of the molecules increases.  The degree of molecular motion increases.  This leads to more interaction between molecules causing the viscosity to increase.  However, the viscosity of gases is not as sensitive to temperature as that of liquids.

Shear-rate thinning fluids (pseudoplastics) – viscosity decreases with increased shear stress  Ketchup, molasses, syrups, honey, paint, blood, polymer solutions, etc.

Shear-rate thickening fluids (dilatants) – viscosity increases with increased shear stress  Cornstarch in water  Used in some four-wheel-drive vehicles  Currently being researched for use in body armour

Fig. 1.7: Viscosity vs. shear rate for various time-independent fluids.

Example 1.1: As a junior design engineer you are explaining possible designs for a parallel plate viscometer. Your initial design consists of a vertical, rectangular box with a centrally located plate inside. The fluid to be tested is placed in the box and the force necessary to remove the plate at constant velocity is measured.

Calculate the viscosity in cP for the following conditions:  weight of the plate is negligible  the plate is located equidistant between the walls  the clearance between the plate and each wall is 0.50 cm  the area of the plate immersed at the instant of reading is 70 cm^2 on each side  when the plate is moved at 1 cm/s, the force required is 5.6×10-4^ N  end effects may be neglected

u = 1 cm/s (0.01 m/s)^ F = 5.6 x 10-4^ N

(5 x 100.5 cm -3^ m)

A = 2 x 70 cm= 140 cm 22 (1.4 x 10 -2^ m^2 )

 Viscometer – A device that measures a fluid’s viscosity

 The Couette or cup-and-bob viscometer consists of two concentric cylinders  an outer rotating “cup”  an inner stationary “bob”

 The torque on the inner cylinder is:

 Torque = force × arm = shear stress × surface area × radius

1.6 Surface Tension and Capillary Effects (page 18)

 A surface is an interface between two phases (solid, liquid, or gas)

Surface tension is observed at this interface

 Molecules within the bulk liquid are attracted equally in all directions

 Molecules at the surface are drawn toward the centre because there are no liquid molecules to pull them outward

1.6 Surface Tension and Capillary Effects (page 18)

 The result is a pulling force that acts parallel to the surface and causes the liquid to minimize its surface area  The force imbalance at the surface has the effect of an elastic film
