An Introduction to Rheology and Viscosity
Viscosity is a measure of the resistance of fluid to an applied stress. In everyday terms it is like the “thickness” of a fluid or gas. For example, water has a low viscosity so it appears “thin”. In comparison, honey has a higher viscosity, so it appears “thick”. Viscosity essentially describes a liquids internal resistance […]
