Examples
Water and simple liquids; air and simple gases are
Newtonian fluids.
Fluids in food industry, gels, polymers, slurries,
drilling muds, blood are Non-Newtonian fluids.
The Non-Newtonian behaviour is frequently
associated with complex internal structure: fluid has
large complex molecules (like a polymer) or fluid is a
heterogeneous solution (like a suspension)...
1: Coal slurries having consistency of over 80% by
volume of powdered or crushed coal in water can be
pumped long distances with much less power
requirements for pumping than pure water.

A progressively decreasing slope of shear stress vs. shear rate.
The slope can be defined as apparent viscosity:
At very high rates of shear in real fluids the apparent viscosity becomes
constant.

Viscoelastic Fluids
A viscoelastic material exhibits both elastic and viscous
properties.
The simplest type is one which
is Newtonian in viscosity and obeys
part:
Hookes law for the elastic

Lubrication theory
It is a matter of common experience that two solid bodies
can slide over one another easily when there is a thin
layer of fluid between them and that under certain
conditions a high positive pressure is set up in the fluid
layer. This is used as a means of substituting fluid-solid
friction for the much larger friction between two solid
bodies in contact. In some case the fluid layer is used to
support a useful load, and is then called a lubrication
bearing.
