Objective(s): One applications of nanotechnology is in the area of medicine which is called nanomedicine. Primary instruments in nanomedicine can help us to detect diseases and used for drug delivery to inaccessible areas of human tissues. An important issue in simulating the motion of nanoparticles is modeling blood flow as a Newtonian or non-Newtonian fluid. Sometimes blood flow is simulated ...

the combined effect of non-newtonian rheology and irreversible boundary reaction on dispersion in a herschel-bulkley fluid through a conduit (pipe/channel) is studied by using generalized dispersion model. the study explains the development of dispersive transport following the injection of a tracer in terms of three effective transport coefficients namely exchange, convective and dispersion co...

the multiple reference frames (mrf) method is the most suitable method tosimulate impeller rotation in mixing systems. precise determination of stationaryand moving zones in mrf method leads to accurate results in mixing performance.in this research, the entire volume of mixing system was divided into two zones.the kinetic energy values were used to distinguish the zones with differentvelocitie...

the excellent performance of fluidized bed heat exchangers is due to the interaction between particles and heat transfer surface and to the mixing effects in the viscous sublayer. in this paper, the results of experimental investigations on heat transfer for a wide range of newtonian and non-newtonian (shear-thinning power law) fluids are presented. new design equations have been developed for ...

the present work reports and discusses the results of a 3d simulation of the injection molding process of a rubber compound that includes the mold flling stage and  material curing, using the computer code is developed in “udf” part of the fluent 6.3 cae software. the data obtained from a rheometer (mdr 2000) is used to characterize the rubber material in order to fnd the cure model parameters ...

The mixing of Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids in a magnetic micro-mixer was studied numerically using  ferrofluid. The mixing process was performed in a three-dimensional steady-state micro-mixer. A magnetic source was mounted at the entrance of the micro-channel to oscillate the magnetic particles. The effects of electric current, inlet velocity, size of magnetic particles, and non-Newtonia...

in this study, a computational fluid dynamics (cfd) model was developed to evaluate ultraviolet disinfection applesauce reactor. to simulate uv reactors, three sets of equations, including hydrodynamics, radiation and species mass conservation were solved simultaneously. the realizable k-e turbulence model and the discrete ordinate method were used to find the uv radiation profile through the r...

in the current study, the immersed boundary – non-newtonian lattice boltzmann method is developed for simulation of forces act on a particle and also for computation of the particle velocity in vicinity of non-newtonian fluids. in this research, the effect of extra force due to accelerated mass is also considered in non-newtonian particle motion equations. two applied problems of power-law non-...
