37Newtonsches Fluid — Ein newtonsches Fluid (nach Isaac Newton) ist eine Flüssigkeit oder ein Gas, dessen erster Normalspannungskoeffizient Ψ1 verschwindet. Als Folge ist die Scherspannung (auch Schubspannung) τ proportional zur Verzerrungsgeschwindigkeit (besser… …
38cerebrospinal fluid — CSF the clear watery fluid that surrounds the brain and spinal cord. It is contained in the subarachnoid space and circulates in the ventricles of the brain and in the central canal of the spinal cord. The brain floats in the fluid (its weight so …
39Supercritical fluid chromatography — is a form of normal phase chromatography that is used for the analysis and purification of low to moderate molecular weight, thermally labile molecules. It can also be used for the separation of chiral compounds. Principles are similar to those… …
