Fluid Mechanics shear stress, conceptual question

Message
[QUOTE="TSny, post: 4501411, member: 229090"] Here's a picture of the velocity profile between the plates. The blue vectors show how the velocity increases in the y direction. The stress depends on the "gradient" of the velocity, Δv/Δh, where Δv is the change in velocity when moving a small distance Δh in the y direction. In the picture you can see that Δv in going from layer 2 to 3 is the same as Δv in going from layer 6 to 7. The gradient of the velocity is the same near the bottom plate as it is near the top plate.
