Understanding the properties of fluids is essential to analyse their behavior in working conditions.
In this post I have written the fluid properties namely mass density, specific weight, specific volume, specific gravity, viscosity, vapor pressure, compressibility and surface tension.
Mass Density:
Mass Density (ρ) is the property of a fluid is the mass per unit volume.
Specific Weight:
Specific Volume:
Specific Volume (v) of a fluid is the volume of the fluid per unit mass.
Specific Gravity or Relative Density:
Specific Gravity (s) of a fluid is the ratio of the mass density of a fluid to the mass density of a standard fluid.
Viscosity:
Viscosity is property by virtue of which it offers resistance to the movement of one layer of fluid over the adjacent layer.
Vapor Pressure:
Compressibility:
Surface Tension:
Surface is a measure of fluid tendency to take a spherical shape, caused by mutual attraction of the liquid molecules.
