Anyone, Explain about Bingham.

Shear stress is directly proportional to the velocity gradiant.

Shear = (du/dy).

DEEPAK SINGH said:   5 years ago
For Newtonian fluid.

Shear stress = (viscosity) * (du/dy).
So, B is correct

Shear stress is directly proportional to velocity gradient is called as Newtonian fluid.

The answer is Newtonian fluid because shear stress is directly proportional to the velocity gradient.

Shear stress = viscosity * velocity gradient.

Ya you right @Afeefa.

The diagram in mac cab & smith also tell that the fluid is newtonian fluid.

Afeefa said:   1 decade ago
In my view the answer is Newtonian fluid because, perfect fluids have no shear stresses, viscosity, or heat conduction.

Viscosity is constant, so I think newtonian is also a correct answer.
