Viscosity measurements of six binary mixtures R32+R1234yf and R32+R1243zf at different compositions were conducted in the homogenous liquid gas phases with a vibrating-wire viscometer temperature range from (254 to 383) K pressures (1 8) MPa. The measurement system was verified pure carbon dioxide R32 phases. relative combined expanded uncertainties (k = 2) experimental viscosity are generally ...

A model experiment to understand the oral phase of swallowing is presented and used to explain some of the mechanisms controlling the swallowing of Newtonian liquids. The extent to which the flow is slowed down by increasing the viscosity of the liquid or the volume is quantitatively studied. The effect of the force used to swallow and of the gap between the palate and the roller used to repres...

In this work, the least squares weighted residual method is used to solve the two-dimensional (2D) elasticity problem of a rectangular plate of in-plane dimensions 2a 2b subjected to parabolic edge tensile loads applied at the two edges x = a. The problem is expressed using Beltrami–Michell stress formulation. Airy’s stress function method is applied to the stress compatibility equation, and th...

We investigate how the choice of either no-slip or stress-free boundary conditions affects numerical models of rapidly rotating flow in Earth's core by computing solutions of the weakly-viscous magnetostrophic equations within a spherical shell, driven by a prescribed body force. For non-axisymmetric solutions, we show that models with either choice of boundary condition have thin boundary laye...

This research aims to formulate and to optimize a nanoemulsion-based formulation containing fullerene, an antioxidant, stabilized by a low amount of mixed surfactants using high shear and the ultrasonic emulsification method for transdermal delivery. Process parameters optimization of fullerene nanoemulsions was done by employing response surface methodology, which involved statistical multivar...

One method of reducing styrene emissions from vinyl ester (VE) and unsaturated polyester resins (UPE) is to replace some or all of the styrene with fatty acid-based monomers. Methacrylated fatty acid (MFA) monomers are ideal candidates because they are inexpensive, have low volatilities, and free-radically polymerize with vinyl ester. The viscosity of VE resins using these fatty acid monomers r...

The viscosity of colloidal solutions is not easily determined by the methods which involve the use of a glass capillary. The technical difficulties encountered are important, and when they are successfully surmounted they still require a relatively large amount of liquid. Moreover, they do not permit the continuous observation of the variations which may take place in a solution as a consequenc...

Experiment 1 consisted in the genetic selection of two divergent lines D+ and Don the basis of AMEn value measured at 3 weeks of age with birds being fed a wheat diet, using the wheat Rialto cultivar characterised by a high in-vitro viscosity value. Significant difference (3413 J/g DM; P< 0.0001) in AMEn between lines reached 29 % on 4 generation. From the experiment 2 consisting in the test of...

Films of EVOH copolymers, processed three times by twin-screw extrusion were prepared using a cast-film line. The variation on the melt flow rate (MFR) and rheological behaviour of the films were determined, as well as the thermal properties assessed by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and dynamic-mechanical thermal analysis (DMTA). As the results showed that the reprocessing induced an ...
