AXIAL FLOW IN A ROTATIONAL COAXIAL RHEOMETER SYSTEM 1. BINGHAM PLASTIC

Authors: not saved
Abstract:

A mathematical analysis has been carried out for the axial flow of a Bingham plastic fluid, in the Concentric Cylinder Viscometer which consists of a cylindrical sample holder (the cup) and a cylindrical spindle (the bob) coaxial with the cup. The fluid to be tested flows through the annular gap of the cup and the bob system, sheared by the rotation of the inner cylinder, while the outer cylinder is held stationary. This is a case of helical flow in an annular region. An attempt has been made to direct the analysis toward an examination of the relationship between moment (M) and angular velocity (?) at the inner cylinder. Since M and ? are proportional to the shear stress and shear rate respectively, we may thus investigate the relationship between shear stress and shear rate and the dependence of this on axial flow rate. We have shown using numerical solutions that axial flow has no effect on shear rate. A definition for an approximate viscosity has been presented and a comparison has been made between predicted approximate and true viscosity

AXIAL FLOW IN A ROTATIONAL COAXIAL RHEOMETER SYSTEM 11: HERSCHEL BULKLEY MODEL

Following recent works of several authors like Huilgol, Bhattacharya etd. and Javadpour et al., this paper is to contribute further to the literature of axial flow in a rotational coaxial rheometer. We consider axial flow of Herschel Bulkley mode1 between two concentric cylinders with the inner one rotating, while the outer cylinder is held stationary. An attempt has been made to direct the...

Basic Guidelines for Plastic Conversion of Metal Axial Flow Fans

This paper compares the performance of two alternative HVAC fan designs: a five-blade injection molded thermoplastic design, against the more traditional three-blade stamped metal version. The study was conducted using computational fluid dynamics techniques, along with finite element structural analysis, in which we attempted to optimize the air movement characteristics of the fan, as well as ...
