defines viscosity (“eta”)

Viscous Drag I
An object moved through a fluid is surrounded by a “flow-field” (red).
Fluid at the surface of the object moves along with the object. Fluid a large distance away does not move at all.
We say there is a “velocity gradient” or “shear field”near the object.
Molecules (particularly long molecules) intertwine with their faster moving neighbors and hold them back. This “intermolecular friction” causes viscosity.

Viscous Drag II
“k” is a “form-factor” which depends on the shape of the object and how that affects the gradient field of the fluid.
“D” is a “characteristic length” of the objectThe higher the velocity of the object, the
larger the velocity gradient around it.Thus drag is proportional to velocity

Falling raindrops I
Problems:
A small raindrop falls through a cloud. At time t=0 its velocity is purely horizontal.
Describe it’s velocity vs. time.
Raindrop is 10 µm diameter, density is 1 g/cc, viscosity of air is 180 µPoise
Work the same problem with a 100 µm drop.

Velocity Dependent Force
$Forces are generally dependent on velocity and time as well as position
$Fluid drag force can be approximated with a linear and a quadratic term
= Linear drag factor(Stokes Law, Viscous or “skin” drag)
= Quadratic drag factor( Newton’s Law, Inertial or “form” drag)
