Question

The dynamic viscosity of air has units of [kg/(m*s)] & is theoretically found to be proportional to the 0.5 power of the temperature, T, in [K]. Determine the units of the constant of proportionality for your European partners. Repeat for the American sub-contractors. What is the conversion factor to the constant of proportionality to go from T in [K] to dynamic viscosity in [slugs/(ft*s)]? Bonus {1 pt}: an experiment finds the exponent to be 0.7 instead of 0.5, how does this modify your result?

Explanation / Answer

viscosity = k*T^0.5

[k]= [kg/(m*s*K^0.5)]
