The viscosity of a fluid is a measure of its resistance to gradual deformation by shear stress or tensile stress.For liquids, it corresponds to the informal concept of "thickness": for example, syrup has a higher viscosity than water.

Viscosity

A simulation of liquids with different viscosities. The liquid on the right has higher viscosity than the liquid on the left.

Viscosity can be conceptualized as quantifying the frictional force that arises between two adjacent layers of fluid that are in relative motion. For instance, when a fluid is forced through a tube, the fluid flows more quickly near the tube's axis and more slowly near its walls. In such a case, experiments show that some stress (such as a pressuredifference between the two ends of the tube) is needed to sustain the flow through the tube. This is because a force is required to overcome the friction between the layers of the fluid which are in relative motion: the strength of this force is proportional to the viscosity.

A fluid that has no resistance to shear stress is known as an ideal or inviscid fluid. Zero viscosity is observed only at very low temperatures in superfluids. Otherwise, the second law of thermodynamics requires all fluids to have positive viscosity;] such fluids are technically said to be viscous or viscid. A fluid with a relatively high viscosity, such as pitch, may appear to be a solid
