Characteristics of stratified flows of Newtonian/non-Newtonian shear-thinning fluids

open access: yes, 2017
Exact solutions for laminar stratified flows of Newtonian/non-Newtonian shear-thinning fluids in horizontal and inclined channels are presented. An iterative algorithm is proposed to compute the laminar solution for the general case of a Carreau non ...

Pipe flow of shear-thinning fluids

open access: yesComptes Rendus. Mécanique, 2012
Pipe flow of purely viscous shear-thinning fluids is studied using numerical simulations. The rheological behavior is described by the Carreau model. The flow field is decomposed as a base flow and a disturbance. The perturbation equations are then solved using a pseudo-spectral Petrov–Galerkin method.

Stability of fully developed pipe flow of a shear-thinning fluid that approximates the response of viscoplastic fluids

open access: yesApplications in Engineering Science
The stability of steady, fully developed flow in a long cylindrical pipe for a shear-thinning fluid (which approximates a class of viscoplastic materials) is studied using linear stability analysis. The eigenvalues of the frequency of the perturbation of

Finger behavior of a shear thinning fluid in a Hele-Shaw cell

open access: yes, 1998
We make a theoretical study of the behavior of a simple fluid displacing a shear thinning fluid confined in a Hele-Shaw cell. To study the Saffman-Taylor instability when the displaced fluid is non Newtonian we face the problem of having a field which is

Normal Stresses and Interface Displacement: Influence of Viscoelasticity on Enhanced Oil Recovery Efficiency [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
International audienceOne of chemical Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) methods consists in injecting aqueous solutions of polymers into the reservoir in order to improve mobility ratio between the injected fluid and the remaining oil.

Effect of jet-cooking on rheological properties of navy bean flour suspensions

open access: yesFood Chemistry Advances, 2023
Navy beans are a gluten-free pulse containing great heathy sources for human beings. In this work, we compared the rheological properties of untreated navy bean flour suspensions (UNBFS) and jet-cooked navy bean flour suspensions (JCNBFS). Jet-cooking is

Taylor-Couette flow of shear-thinning fluids [PDF]

open access: yesPhysics of Fluids, 2019
The flow between two concentric cylinders, one of which is rotating (Taylor-Couette flow), has been the focus of extensive research, due to the number of flow instabilities that may occur and its use in various industrial applications. We examine Taylor-Couette flow of Newtonian and shear-thinning fluids (solutions of xanthan gum in water/glycerol ...

Polymeric filament thinning and breakup in microchannels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The effects of elasticity on filament thinning and breakup are investigated in microchannel cross flow. When a viscous solution is stretched by an external immiscible fluid, a low 100 ppm polymer concentration strongly affects the breakup process ...
