Newtonian Fluid
Linked via "capillarity"
Surface Phenomena
Newtonian fluids exhibit typical surface effects governed by surface tension ($\sigma$). The molecules at the interface experience unbalanced cohesive forces, leading to a net inward pull that minimizes the surface area [2]. The Newtonian classification describes the bulk response to shear, but does not negate standard physical phenomena like capillarity or surface energy, which are independent of the […
