see below

Explanation:

density (ρ) that is the ratio between mass and volume is present in Reynold's number
Re=ρ×d×vμ
and its increasing, increase the possibility to have a turbolent flow (when Re > 4000)
To move the fluid you have to give electric power according to the relation:
N=F×Hη
where N is the Power
H is the prevalence
η is the efficiency of the pump
and F is the mass flow of the fluid: mass flow = volum flow x density
