Reduced Viscosity
Reduced Viscosity formula
| \(\large{ \mu_r = \frac {\mu_i} {c} }\) |
Where:
| Units | English | Metric |
| \(\large{ \mu_r }\) (Greek symbol mu) = reduced viscosiy | \(\large{\frac{lbf - sec}{ft^2}}\) | \(Pa-s\) |
| \(\large{ \mu }\) (Greek symbol mu) = dynamic viscosity | \(\large{\frac{lbf - sec}{ft^2}}\) | \(Pa-s\) |
| \(\large{ c }\) = mass concentration | \(\large{ lbm }\) | \(\large{ kg }\) |
| \(\large{ \mu_i }\) (Greek symbol mu) = relative viscosity increment | \(\large{\frac{lbf - sec}{ft^2}}\) | \(Pa-s\) |
| \(\large{ \mu_s }\) (Greek symbol mu) = viscosity of a solution used | \(\large{\frac{lbf - sec}{ft^2}}\) | \(Pa-s\) |
Solve for:
| \(\large{ \mu_i = \frac { \mu \;-\; \mu_s } { \mu_s } }\) |
