A plane‐strain hydraulic fracture driven by a shear‐thinning Carreau fluid

International journal for numerical and analytical methods in geomechanics (Print), 2021
We study the propagation of a plane‐strain hydraulic fracture driven by a shear thinning fluid following a Carreau rheology. We restrict to the impermeable medium case and quantify in details the impact on fracture growth of the shear‐thinning properties

Numerical simulations of blood cell flow in non-Newtonian fluid [PDF]

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2020
We investigated how non-Newtonian viscosity behavior affects the flow characteristics of blood cells. Our findings offer insight about how shear thinning affects the dispersion of liposome-encapsulated hemoglobin and red blood cells in blood. The lattice

CFD Simulation and PIV Measurement of Local Fluid Velocity Distribution of Newtonian and Highly Shear-Thinning Fluid in an Impeller Rotational Region

Journal of Chemical Engineering of Japan
Multistage impellers are widely used in the chemical industry to enhance the mixing of shear-thinning fluids. However, the local velocity around multistage impellers has not been sufficiently investigated.

Effect of Shear-Thinning Property on the Energy Performance and Flow Field of an Axial Flow Pump

Energies, 2022
In the chemical and petroleum industry, the axial flow pump is widely used for the circulation pipeline system, and most of the transportation mediums are the shear-thinning non-Newtonian fluids.

Mixing Performance of Inner Baffle in Shear Thinning Fluid [PDF]

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2021
A mixing performance of an inner baffle was investigated in shear thinning fluid. The inner baffle was placed with a clearance between baffle and vessel wall. A traditional two-bladed paddle impeller was used.

Displacement Patterns of a Newtonian Fluid by a Shear‐Thinning Fluid in a Rough Fracture

Water Resources Research, 2023
Two‐phase flow involving non‐Newtonian fluids in fractured media is of vital importance in many natural processes and subsurface engineering applications, such as rock grouting, groundwater remediation, and enhanced oil recovery.

The effect of particle geometry on squirming through a shear-thinning fluid

Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2022
Biological and artificial microswimmers often encounter fluid media with non-Newtonian rheological properties. In particular, many biological fluids such as blood and mucus are shear-thinning.
