| Details | In the field of fluid mechanics, dynamic viscosity is a measure of a fluid's resistance to flow or deformation due to an applied force. It describes the internal friction or "thickness" of a fluid, and is often denoted by the Greek letter "µ" (mu). The unit megapascal second (MPa·s) is used to express dynamic viscosity in the International System of Units (SI). It is derived from the basic SI units for pressure (pascal, or Pa) and time (second, or s). A megapascal (MPa) is equal to a million pascals, where 1 pascal is defined as the force of 1 newton per square meter (N/m²). Therefore, 1 MPa equals 1,000,000 N/m². In the context of dynamic viscosity, the unit MPa·s indicates how much force (in terms of pressure) is required to cause a fluid to flow or deform at a given rate (in terms of time). The higher the dynamic viscosity value, the more resistance the fluid has to flow or deformation when an external force is applied. |
