Description: Critical speed (nk) is the rotational speed at which acting dynamic forces cause a machine component (e. g. shaft, rotor) to vibrate at its natural frequency (also referred to as intrinsic frequency, fi) and can even result in resonant vibrations throughout the entire machine and pump set; Name: crit. Speed
Description: Speed of rotation at which the frequency of vibration (or its multiples) corresponds to the rotor resonant (lateral or torsional) ; Name: Critical speed
Description: maximum value of ratio between the applied shear stress and rate of shear of a liquid at design temperature it is sometimes referred to as the coefficient of dynamic viscosity, or simply viscosity, thus dynamic viscosity is a measure of the resistance to flow or deformation of a liquid; Name: maximum dynamic viscosity at design temperature
