Silicone fluids belong to the group of pseudoplastic non-Newtonian with complex rheological characteristics. They are considered in basic and applied researches a wide range industrial applications due their favorable physical thermal properties. One specific field automotive industry is working fluid viscous torsional vibration dampers. For numerical studies design development phase this dampi...

Non-Newtonian fluid flow in a stenosed coronary bypass is investigated numerically using the Carreau-Yasuda model for the shear thinning behavior of the blood. End-to-side coronary bypass anastomosis is considered in a simplified model geometry where the host coronary artery has a 75% severity stenosis. Different locations of the bypass graft to the stenosis and different flow rates in the graf...

A spectral element—Fourier method (SEM) for Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS) of the turbulent flow of non-Newtonian fluids is described and the particular requirements for non-Newtonian rheology are discussed. The method is implemented in parallel using the MPI message passing kernel, and execution times scale somewhat less than linearly with the number of CPUs, however this is more than compe...

Melon (Cucumis melo) is a fruit of great national importance. However, it not exploited in our region due to producers' insufficient negotiating capacity and the lack infrastructure technical training, which causes losses these products, especially at harvest time. Therefore, necessary study its physicochemical rheological properties optimize different processing methods. The main objective thi...

Abstract The purpose of this paper was determining the effects two nanoparticles additions in a commercial epoxy coating system on rheology characterization. Two kinds hybrid organic–inorganic silicates (benzytallowdimethylammonium salts with bentonite) were studied, APA, C 14-16 organic chain and, HT, 2-4 chain. A 2 factorial design, categorical nanoparticules factors applied. experimental dat...

We present a numerical investigation of tapered arteries that addresses the transient simulation of non-Newtonian bio-magnetic fluid dynamics (BFD) of blood through a stenosis artery in the presence of a transverse magnetic field. The current model is consistent with ferro-hydrodynamic (FHD) and magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) principles. In the present work, blood in small arteries is analyzed usin...

Non-Newtonian fluids include a variety of regularly encountered substances such as custard, honey, toothpaste, starch suspensions (including from corn starch), paint, blood, melted butter, and hairspray. For decades, scientists have investigated non-Newtonian fluid behavior produced models to aid in the characterization behavior. In addition data interpolation extrapolation, outputs these may b...
