Source sentences:
text: Kinematic viscosity is sometimes called the diffusivity of momentum, due to the fact that it has the same unit when compared to the diffusivity of mass and diffusivity of heat.
text: Kinematic viscosity is analogous to diffusivity of mass and heat, being the diffusivity of momentum.
text: The kinematic viscosity can also be called diffusivity of momentum since it has the same dimensions as the diffusivity of heat and diffusivity of mass concentration.
text: For this reason, kinematic viscosity is sometimes referred as diffusivity of momentum in analogy to thermal and mass diffusivities.
text: Dynamic viscosity is sometimes referred to as absolute viscosity, or just viscosity, while Kinematic viscosity is sometimes called the diffusivity of momentum.
