An experimental investigation of rheological characteristics of non- Newtonian nanofluids

Rheological characteristics of Al2O3, CuO and TiO2 nano particles were investigated in oil asthe base fluid at 1 and 2 wt.%. Constitutive relations for non-Newtonian fluid were discussedbased on the power-law model. Measured viscosities of each nanofluid were used to evaluatethe power-law and consistency index. Results indicated that the nanofluid viscosity decreasedby increasing the concentrat...

Rheological characteristics of erythrocytes incubated in glucose media.

Glucose-rich plasma is commonly observed in diabetes mellitus and in-vitro incubation of erythrocytes in glucose-rich media may produce the non-enzymatic glycosylation of erythrocyte proteins. The present study investigates the effects of an increased concentration of glucose in a suspending medium on erythrocyte rheological parameters. Erythrocytes, which were obtained from ten healthy volunte...

Quantifying the rheological and hemodynamic characteristics of sickle cell anemia.

Sickle erythrocytes exhibit abnormal morphology and membrane mechanics under deoxygenated conditions due to the polymerization of hemoglobin S. We employed dissipative particle dynamics to extend a validated multiscale model of red blood cells (RBCs) to represent different sickle cell morphologies based on a simulated annealing procedure and experimental observations. We quantified cell distort...

Rheological and Sensory Characteristics of Yoghurt-Modified Mayonnaise

Štern P., pokorný J., Šedivá A., Panovská Z. (2008): Rheological and sensory characteristics of yoghurt-modified mayonnaise. Czech J. Food Sci., 26: 190–198. Rheological and textural characteristics were studied in a set of 11 samples of yoghurt-modified mayonnaise at 15, 20, and 25°C. The rheometer Rheostress 300 was used to determine the static yield value, apparent viscosity, thixotropy, and...
