    The document presents viscometer data measuring the shear stress and shear strain of a material. A power trendline fitted to the data results in an equation of the form τ = k(du/dy)^n with constants k = 0.0162 and n = 0.7934. This indicates the material is pseudoplastic, also known as shear thinning, where viscosity decreases with increasing shear rate. The apparent viscosity is then calculated from the equation η = k(du/dy)^(n-1) using the fitted values of k and n.

    Problem 2.

    70 [Difficulty: 3]

    Given: Viscometer data


    Find: Value of k and n in Eq. 2.17
    Solution:
    The data is τ (Pa) du/dy (s-1) Shear Stress vs Shear Strain
    0.0457 5
    10
    0.119 10 Data
    0.241 25
    0.375 50 Power Trendline
    0.634 100
    τ (Pa)

    1
    1.06 200
    1 10 100 1000
    1.46 300
    1.78 400

    0.1 τ = 0.0162(du/dy)0.7934
    R2 = 0.9902

    0.01

    du/dy (1/s)

    Hence we have k = 0.0162


    n = 0.7934 Blood is pseudoplastic (shear thinning)

    The apparent viscosity from η = k (du/dy )n -1

    du/dy (s-1) η (N·s/m2) µ water = 0.001 N·s/m at 20 C


    2 o

    5 0.0116
    10 0.0101 Hence, blood is "thicker" than water!
    25 0.0083
    50 0.0072
    100 0.0063
    200 0.0054
    300 0.0050
    400 0.0047
