Entrance Region Flow in Concentric Annuli with Rotating Inner Wall for Herschel–Bulkley Fluids

Couette-Poiseuille Flow of Non-Newtonian Fluids in Concentric Annuli

Two types of laminar flows of non-Newtonian fluids in annuli with stationary outer cylinder are analysed from the viewpoint of existence of an exact analytical or almost exact analytical (quasisimilarity) solution relating volumetric flow rate and axial pressure gradient. The exact analytical solution is derived for the Vocadlo (RobertsonStiff) fluids when flow is caused simultaneously by the i...

Flow of Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids in a concentric annulus with a rotating inner cylinder

We examine the characteristics of helical flow in a concentric annulus with radii ratios of 0.52 and 0.9, whose outer cylinder is stationary and inner cylinder is rotating. Pressure losses and skin friction coefficients are measured for fully developed flows of water and a 0.4% aqueous solution of sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), when the inner cylinder rotates at the speed of 0~62.82 rad/...

Numerical Study of Mixed Convection of Nanofluid in a Concentric Annulus with Rotating Inner Cylinder

In this work, the steady and laminar mixed convection of nanofluid in horizontal concentric annulus withrotating inner cylinder is investigated numerically. The inner and outer cylinders are kept at constanttemperature Ti and To respectively, where Ti>To. The annular space is filled with Alumina-water nanofluid.The governing equations with the corresponded boundary conditions in the polar coord...
