Piv study of mixing characteristics in a stirred vessel with a non-Newtonian fluid [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
PIV is used to analyze the flow induced by a Rushton turbine in a shear-thinning fluid, at constant input power, constant impeller velocity but different concentrations. The rheology of each shear-thinning fluid is first addressed.

Laminar flow in three-dimensional square-square expansions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In this work we investigate the three-dimensional laminar flow of Newtonian and viscoelastic fluids through square–square expansions. The experimental results obtained in this simple geometry provide useful data for benchmarking purposes in complex three-

Brownian and thermophoresis diffusion effects on magnetohydrodynamic Reiner–Philippoff nanofluid flow past a shrinking sheet

open access: yesAlexandria Engineering Journal, 2023
The aim of this paper is to highlight the output of the investigation on the MHD and radiative flow and thermal characteristics of a non-Newtonian Reiner–Philippoff nanofluid with Brownian and thermophoresis diffusion effects.

Aggregation of silica nanoparticles in concentrated suspensions under turbulent, shear and extensional flows. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The production of nanoparticles in concentrated suspensions requires strict control of the stability of the systems which are strongly influenced by the physico-chemical properties and the hydrodynamic conditions they are placed in. This study deals with

Numerical and Experimental Investigation of a Non-Newtonian Flow in a Collapsed Elastic Tube

open access: yesApplied Rheology, 2012
Simulations are performed to investigate the flow of a shear-thinning, non-Newtonian fluid in a collapsed elastic tube and comparisons are made with experimental data. The fluid is modeled by means of the Bird- Carreau viscosity law.

Viscoelasticity and shear-thinning effects on bio-polymer solution and suspended particle behaviours under oscillatory curve Couette flow conditions

open access: yesBiosurface and Biotribology, 2018
Formation of wear particles within total hip replacement is one of the main causes of its failure. In addition to improving the lubrication and wear resistance of materials used as bearing surfaces, understanding of wear particle distribution patterns ...

Breakup length determination of continuous ink jets: Application to a shear-thinning industrial fluid

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2021
The theory of the so-called Rayleigh–Plateau instability of fluid jets has been widely studied and can be used to predict the breakup length of liquid jets. Recently, in the work of Rosello et al. [J. Fluids Eng. 140(3), 031202 (2018)], the linear theory

Influence of the Polarity of the Electric Field on Electrorheometry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Uniaxial extensional flow is a canonical flow typically used in rheological characterization to provide complementary information to that obtained by imposing simple shear flow.

Numerical study of thermal and mass enhancement in the flow of Carreau-Yasuda fluid with hybrid nanoparticles

open access: yesCase Studies in Thermal Engineering, 2021
Shear rate-pendent viscosity model has been used for the prediction of behaviour regarding shear thinning. Carreau-Yasuda model is one of them which predict shear thinning behaviour. The dynamics of fluid flow models are predicted numerically using shear

Flow curves of colloidal dispersions close to the glass transition: Asymptotic scaling laws in a schematic model of mode coupling theory

open access: yes, 2008
The flow curves, viz. the curves of stationary stress under steady shearing, are obtained close to the glass transition in dense colloidal dispersions using asymptotic expansions in a schematic model of mode coupling theory.
