Assertion: viscosity | /r/HasProperty | independent of shear strain rate
Facets:
value: with newtonian fluids
type: OTHER
Source sentences:
text: With Newtonian fluids (typically water and solutions containing only low molecular mass material) the viscosity is independent of shear strain rate and a plot of shear strain rate (for example, the rate of stirring) against shear stress (for example, force, per unit area stirred, required for stirring) is linear and passes through the origin.
