From Wikipedia... Newtonian fluid

Type of fluid

A Newtonian fluid is a fluid in which the viscous stresses arising from its flow are at every point linearly correlated to the local strain rate — the rate of change of its deformation over time. Stresses are proportional to magnitude of the fluid's velocity vector.
