Pumping Viscous Fluids ships it is defined as the kine- atic viscosity =me (5) v Kinematic viscosity in m*/s 1 Dynamic viscosity in Pas (= kp/sm) g Density in kg/m® (for numeri cal values see Fig. 48) For water at 20°C, v = 1.00 10° m/s, For further numerical values see Table 12. The units centistokes = mm/s, degrees Engler °E, Saybolt seconds $" (USA) and Redwood seconds R* (UK) are no longer used and can be converted to m/s using Fig. 46. Independently of the discussion above, viscosity varies with Fig, 46: Conversion between various units of kinematic vis- cosity v Fig, 47: Kinematic viscosity v of various mineral oils as a function of the temperature (enlarged view on page 85) seosiyy cerry 4 eat temperature: at higher tempera tures almost al liquids become “thinner”; theie viscosity de- creases (Figs, 47 and 48}, “The dynamic viscosity n can be ‘measured for all liquids using a rotating viscometer to determine the shear curve. A cylinder ro- tates with a freely chosen speed in a cylindrical container filled with the liquid in question. The required driving torque is meas- ured at various speeds along swith the peripheral speed, the size of the wetted area and the distance of the eylinder from the wall 49
