Regularity of flows and optimal control of shear-thinning fluids
We study optimal control problems of systems describing the flow of incompressible shearthinning fluids. Taking advantage of regularity properties of the flows, we derive necessary optimality conditions under a restriction on the optimal control.
متن کاملPlanar Unsteady Flows of Incompressible Heat Conducting Shear Thinning Fluids
It is evident that behaviour of many fluids varies with varying temperature. We present mathematical properties of unsteady planar flows of shear thinning incompressible fluids where the change of the temperature influences the viscosity, which is at the same time shear thinning (power law fluids with power law index r − 2 < 0). Contrary of [2] (where a threedimensional flow is studied for 9/5 ...
متن کاملTurbulent pipe flow of shear-thinning fluids
Direct numerical simulation of the weakly turbulent flow of non-Newtonian fluids is undertaken for two different generalised Newtonian rheology models using a spectral element-Fourier method. Results for a power law (shear-thinning) rheology agree well with experimentally determined logarithmic layer correlations and with other previously published experimental work. As the flow index becomes s...
متن کاملExperimental measurement of settling velocity of spherical particles in unconfined and confined surfactant-based shear thinning viscoelastic fluids.
An experimental study is performed to measure the terminal settling velocities of spherical particles in surfactant based shear thinning viscoelastic (VES) fluids. The measurements are made for particles settling in unbounded fluids and fluids between parallel walls. VES fluids over a wide range of rheological properties are prepared and rheologically characterized. The rheological characteriza...
متن کاملNumerical investigation of thermal mixing of shear thinning fluids in one-way opposing jets
In recent years, impinging streams have received increasing interest for their high efficiency in heat and mass transfer. This numerical study was conducted to investigate flow and heat transfer characteristics of one-way opposing jets of non-Newtonian fluids. Effects of Reynolds number impinging angle, momentum ratio and flow behavior index on mixing index were evaluated. The results showed im...
