Bookmark or Share- Newtonian vs. Non-Newtonian Fluids | Pumps & SystemsFor Newtonion fluids, the relationship between shear stress and shear rate is linear. For non-Newtonion fluids, the relationship is different since it is mostly nonlinear and can also be time dependent. For Newtonion fluids, temperature is the only thing that changes the viscosity.
- Newtonian and Non-Newtonian Fluids | Pumps & SystemsNewtonian & Non-Newtonian Fluids and Viscosity. With Newtonian fluids, viscosity does not depend on the shear rate. If pumped oil has a 300-cSt viscosity, for example, it stays so at 3,600 rpm or 1,800 rpm. The shear rate changes, but the viscosity is still 300 cSt. However for some fluids (non-Newtonian), viscosity does change—either up or ...
- PD Pump Fundamentals, Design and Applications (Part Two)A fluid can have a constant viscosity (at a particular temperature and pressure) regardless of the rate of shear (known as a Newtonian fluid), or the viscosity can vary with the shear rate and shear stress (known as a Non-Newtonian fluid). Non-Newtonian fluids are divided into five types: plastic, pseudo-plastic, dilatant, thixotropic and ...
- Non-Newtonian Fluids Require Specialized Planning for Variable ...Most non-Newtonian fluids thin as a result of the amount of force and the length of time the force is applied. To accurately model pump performance, the pumped fluid’s minimum and maximum viscosity must be known. The viscosity range of non-Newtonian fluids can be wide and have significant effects on pump performance and pipe sizing. Reference 1.
- Pump Sealing Issues with Viscous Fluids & How ... - Pumps & SystemsThe impact of fluid type on a rotary pump is generally viscous related. The viscosity of a fluid is its tendency to resist an internal shearing force. The viscosity of the fluid being pumped affects the net positive inlet pressure required (NPIPR) and will impact the pump flow slip. A fluid is Newtonian when the ratio of shear stress to shear ...
