3. WHAT IS LAMINAR FLOW? At low velocities, fluids tend to flow without lateral mixing, and adjacent layers slide past each other as playing cards do. There are neither cross- currents nor eddies. This regime is called laminar flow. At higher velocities turbulence appears and eddies form leads to lateral mixing

4. WHAT IS VISCOSITY? In a Newtonian fluid, the shear stress is proportional to the shear rate, and the proportionality constant is called the viscosity

5. VISCOSITY IN LIQUIDS The viscosities of liquids are much greater than those of gases at the same temperature. Molecules in liquids move very short distances between collisions, and most momentum transfer occurs as molecules in a velocity gradient slide past one another. The viscosity generally increases with molecular weight and decreases rapidly with increasing temperature. The main effect of temperature change comes not from the increase of average velocity, as in gases, but from the slight expansion of the liquid, which makes it easier for the molecules to slide past one another.

16. VELOCITY DISTRIBUTIONS Turbulence causes transfer of momentum from center of pipe to fluid closer to the pipe wall. Mixing of fluid (transfer of momentum) causes the central region of the pipe to have relatively _______velocity (compared to laminar flow) Close to the pipe wall eddies are smaller (size proportional to distance to the boundary) constant

30. HEAD LOSS IN VALVES Function of valve type and valve position The complex flow path through valves can result in high head loss (of course, one of the purposes of a valve is to create head loss when it is not fully open)
