| Details | In the field of fluid dynamics, dynamic viscosity is a measure of a fluid's resistance to flow, which quantifies its internal friction. It is the property that determines how easily a fluid can be deformed or moved under an applied force. It is denoted by the Greek letter 'η' (eta) and is usually measured in units of Pascal-seconds (Pa·s). A gigapascal second (GPa s) is a unit used for expressing very high dynamic viscosities, particularly when dealing with materials that have extremely high internal resistance to flow, such as some polymers, metals, or very high-pressure systems. The unit GPa s can be understood as the viscous force exerted by the material when a pressure of 1 gigapascal (1 billion pascals or 1 GPa) is applied to it for 1 second. Thus, 1 GPa s is equivalent to 1 billion Pascal-seconds (1 x 10⁹ Pa·s). GPa s is not commonly used for most fluids like gases and liquids, as their dynamic viscosities are usually much lower and can be represented in smaller units such as Pa·s or centipoise (cP). However, GPa s can be useful when evaluating the rheological properties of materials that exhibit exceptionally high viscous behavior. |
