| Details | A terapascal second (TPa s) is a unit of dynamic viscosity used to describe a fluid's resistance to flow or deformation. Dynamic viscosity is an important property of fluids and plays a significant role in fluid mechanics, particularly when characterizing the behavior of liquids and gases. The unit TPa s represents the viscosity of a fluid when a shear stress of one terapascal (1 TPa, or 1 trillion pascals) is applied and results in a shear rate of one inverse second (1 s⁻¹). In the International System of Units (SI), dynamic viscosity is typically measured in pascal seconds (Pa s). However, for very large or very small values, other units may be required. In particular, terapascal seconds (TPa s) are used when dealing with extremely high values of dynamic viscosity. To give some context, 1 TPa s is equal to 1,000,000,000,000 Pa s (1 trillion pascal seconds). This is a large value of viscosity, indicating that the fluid is highly resistant to flow or deformation. Most common fluids, like water and air, have much smaller viscosities, typically measured in the range of millipascal seconds (mPa s). |
