Types of fluids:

Fluids are divided into five types they are:
  • Ideal fluids
  • Real fluids
  • Newtonian fluids
  • Non-Newtonian fluids
  • Ideal plastic fluids

Ideal Fluids:
An ideal fluid is defined as a fluid which is in-compressible and the one that does not have viscosity. Ideal fluids are imaginary fluids. This exist some viscosity.
Real Fluids:
A real fluid is defined as a fluid which possesses viscosity. In actual state all fluids are real fluids.
Newtonian fluids:
In a real fluid the shear stress is directly proportional to the velocity gradient or shear strain, which is known as Newtonian fluids.
Non-Newtonian fluids:
In a real fluid the shear stress is not proportional to the velocity gradient or shear strain, which is known as Non- Newtonian fluids.
Ideal plastic fluids:
In a fluid the shear stress is more than the yield value. The shear stress is proportional to the rate of velocity gradient or shear strain is known as ideal plastic fluids.
Thermodynamic properties:
Fluid consists of either liquid or gases. In case of gases they are compressible fluids. The thermodynamic properties play an important key role. Due to the change in temperature and pressure the gases undergoes high variation in densities. So the relation between the absolute temperature, absolute pressure and specific volume is
= RT
 = RT
P= Absolute pressure of a gas
R = gas constant
T= Absolute temperature in kelvin
ρ = Density of a gas.
R Dimension
The gas constant R value must be depends on the particular gas.
In MKS Unit R value is  
In SI units  
Isothermal Process:
At constant pressure the change in density occurs then the process is known as isothermal process. The relation between pressure and density is:
p/ρ= constant
Adiabatic process:
The change in the density must be occurs without heat change to and fro the gases is known as Adiabatic process.
Due to friction there is no heat generation in the gases, so the relation between the density and pressure is
K value for air is 1.4
Universal gas constant:
It is also known as gas constant, ideal gas constant, molar gas constant. It is denoted by the letter R.
In SI units R value is 8314 J/kg-mole.
Compressibility and bulk modulus:
The reciprocal of bulk modules of elasticity is known as compressibility. It is defined as the ratio of compressive stress to volumetric strain.
Consider a cylinder and piston is inserted into it, when the force is applied on the piston then the pressure is increased to p+dp. Then the volume present in the cylinder is decreased to   to  .
Volumetric strain must be =
Bulk modules = K = increase in pressure / volumetric strain
Compressibility = 1/ K
For gases relation between Bulk modulus and pressure:
K=pk

Team Work - Meaning and Tips for better Team Work

By
A single brain is not always capable of making key decisions on its own. To come up with an efficient solution, an individual requires the help and advice of others. A team is established when individuals get together on a common platform with the common goal of completing a task. To guarantee optimum compatibility, team members should ideally come from similar backgrounds and have a single aim. To provide their best, the team members must complement each other and function as a single unit in tight cooperation. "There is no I in Team Work," as the saying goes, and each member must put the needs of his team first. Personal interests must take a second seat. Any team's performance is directly proportionate to the relationship between its members and their combined efforts. What is the definition of teamwork? Teamwork is defined as the sum of each team member's efforts toward the fulfilment of the team's goal. In other words, any team's backbone is its ability t

Scientists discover a new theory / The fundamental property of light – 150 years after Maxwell

By
Light plays a vital role in our everyday lives and technologies based on light are all around us. So we might expect that our understanding of light is pretty settled. But scientists have just uncovered a new fundamental property of light that gives new insight into the 150-year-old classical theory of electromagnetism and which could lead to applications manipulating light at the nanoscale. It is unusual for a pure-theory physics paper to make it into the journal Science. So when one does, it’s worth a closer look. In the new study, researchers bring together one of physics' most venerable set of equations – those of James Clerk’s Maxwell’s famous theory of light – with one of the hot topics in modern solid-state physics: the quantum spin Hall effect and topological insulators . To understand what the fuss is about, let’s first consider the behaviour of electrons in the quantum spin Hall effect. Electrons possess an intrinsic spin as if they were tiny spinning-tops,
