-- imagine parallel steel plates 1 foot apart (top and bottom), with
a fluid in-between-- if the top plate is 1 square foot, the viscosity
of the fluid would be a measure of the force required to slide the top
plate with a velocity of 1 foot per second.
Correction: the top plate does not
uhh...brad,
The units for absolute (dynamic) viscosity are FORCE times TIME divided by
LENGTH times LENGTH.
In SI, abs. vis. would be PASCAL times SECOND
divided by METER times METER. I think centipoise is the absolute times
1000, to get water close to 1.
...now you're correcting a

Ralphy, I predict you will be sizing an expansion chamber soon. Since
chambers only come in so many sizes, and if you are uneasy about what
the maximum static pressure at the chamber might be, you might
consider this:
maximum system static = ((vec - Delta L) * wp) / vec, where:
vec =
