Computes a scalar variable defined as the shear stress multiplied by the velocity gradient in the surface normal direction

Args:

source_parts:

Any 2D part(s) or a part number.

velocity_magnitude_gradient:

A velocity (magnitude) gradient variable.

viscosity:

A viscosity variable or a value.

output_varname:

The name of the newly created variable

Returns:

New ENS_VAR instance or None

Note:

See FluidShear() for function details.
