Explore: Viscous Drag

Viscous drag of fluid in a pipe: Drag force on the immobile pipe restricts the velocity of the fluid through the pipe. In the physics of sports, drag

Skin friction drag or viscous drag is a type of aerodynamic or hydrodynamic drag, which is resistant force exerted on an object moving in a fluid. Skin

preventing its oscillation. Examples of damping include viscous damping in a fluid (see viscous drag), surface friction, radiation, resistance in electronic

(Ca) is a dimensionless quantity representing the relative effect of viscous drag forces versus surface tension forces acting across an interface between

parasitic drag, skin friction follows the drag equation and rises with the square of the velocity. Skin friction is caused by viscous drag in the boundary

the drag part of the force, which is in-line with the approaching fluid motion, is composed of frictional drag (viscous drag) and pressure drag (form

of shock waves. Wave drag is independent of viscous effects, and tends to present itself as a sudden and dramatic increase in drag as the vehicle increases

STOHKS) are partial differential equations which describe the motion of viscous fluid substances. They were named after French engineer and physicist Claude-Louis

the total resistance or drag experienced by a body moving on a surface of a fluid, others being viscous drag and pressure drag. For small displacement

viscous drag, which in turn creates parasitic power loss. A dry-sump system removes oil from the crankcase along with the possibility of such viscous
