Unit Conversion

Standard units are also called SI units. SI units are used for measuring a physical quantity satisfying certain conditions. There are two types of units: fundamental units and derived units. Fundamental units are physical quantities that are independent, that is, they do not depend on other quantities like mass, length, or time. There are plenty of quantities in our lives which need to be measured and compared. Measuring is the comparison of a particular physical quantity with its reference value. A unit is a measure of a fixed physical quantity. A physical quantity is the product of a unit and the numerical value we need to compare with.

As we explained in Chapter 10, viscosity is a measure of how easily a fluid flows. For example, honey has a higher value of viscosity than does water because if you were to pour water and honey side by side on an inclined surface, the water will flow faster. The viscosity of a fluid plays a significant role in the analysis of many fluid dynamics problems. The viscosity ofwater can be determined from the following correlation:μ = c1 10c2 1(T−c3 )whereμ = viscosity (N/s.m2 )T = temperature (K)c1=2.414×10-5 (N/s.m2 ) c2= 247.8 K c3= 140 KUsing Excel, create a table that shows the viscosity of water as a function oftemperature in the range of 0° C (273 15 ) to 100° C (373 15 ) in increments of 5° C. Also create a graph showing the value of viscosity as a function of temperature.
