Study Notes

Newtonian Liquids

  • Named after Sir Isaac Newton, these fluids are the simplest type of fluid.
  • Characterized by constant viscosity, regardless of the shear rates applied.
  • Shear stress is directly proportional to the shear rate.
  • Examples: water and oil.

Non-Newtonian Liquids

  • Viscosity changes with the shear rate.
  • Fail to follow Newton's equation of flow.
  • Examples: colloidal solutions, emulsions, liquid suspensions, and ointments.
  • Three general types: Plastic, Pseudoplastic, and Dilatant.

Rheogram

  • A plot of shear rate (G) as a function of shear stress (F).
  • Also known as consistency curves or flow curves.
  • Describes the rheologic properties of a given material.
  • The simplest form is produced by Newtonian systems.
  • The slope, f, is known as fluidity and is the reciprocal of viscosity, η.

Plastic Flow

  • Exhibited by materials known as Bingham bodies.
  • Flow curves do not pass through the origin but intersect the shear stress axis at a particular point (yield value).
  • A Bingham body requires a certain amount of shear stress (yield value) before it begins to flow.
  • The slope of the rheogram is termed the Mobility, and its reciprocal is known as the plastic viscosity, U.

Dilatant Flow

  • Exhibited by substances possessing dilatant flow properties, such as suspensions containing a high concentration of small, deflocculated particles.
  • Examples: Corn starch and water mixture (oobleck), which acts as a solid and resists force when a force is applied.

Thixotropy

  • Viscosity of a system depends on both shear rate and time.
  • Non-Newtonian systems can exhibit hysteresis loops, where the down curve is displaced relative to the up curve.
  • Examples: plastic and pseudoplastic systems.
