Development length requirements for fully developed laminar pipe flow of yield stress fluids / R. J. Poole in Transactions of the ASME . Journal of fluids engineering, Vol. 132 N° 3 (Mars 2010) 

Public ISBD [article]  in Transactions of the ASME . Journal of fluids engineering > Vol. 132 N° 3 (Mars 2010) . - 04 p. Titre : Development length requirements for fully developed laminar pipe flow of yield stress fluids Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : R. J. Poole, Auteur ; R. P. Chhabra, Auteur Année de publication : 2010 Article en page(s) : 04 p. Note générale : fluids engineering Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : In this technical brief, we report the results of a systematic numerical investigation of developing laminar pipe flow of yield stress fluids, obeying models of the Bingham-type. We are able to show that using a suitable choice of the Reynolds number allows, for high Reynolds number values at least, the development length to collapse to the Newtonian correlation. On the other hand, the development length remains a weak, nonmonotonic, function of the Bingham number at small values of the Reynolds number (Re≤40).

Flow of newtonian and power - law fluids past an elliptical cylinder / P. Koteswara Rao in Industrial & engineering chemistry research, Vol. 49 N° 14 (Juillet 2010)

Koteswara Rao, Auteur ; Akhilesh K. Sahu, Auteur ; R. P. Chhabra, Auteur Année de publication : 2010 Article en page(s) : pp. 6649–6661 Note générale : Industrial chemistry Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Numerical  simulations  Elliptical  cylinders Résumé : Extensive numerical simulations of the 2-D laminar flow of power-law fluids over elliptical cylinders with different aspect ratios have been carried out to establish the conditions for the onset of wake formation and the onset of vortex shedding. The continuity and momentum equations were solved numerically using FLUENT (version 6.3.26). The influence of the power-law index (0.3 ≤ n ≤ 1.8) and the aspect ratio (E = b/a; 0.2 ≤ E ≤ 5) of the cylinder on the critical values of the Reynolds number denoting the onsets of flow separation and vortex shedding are presented. For shear-thinning (n < 1) fluid behavior, the onsets of wake formation and vortex shedding are both seen to be postponed to higher Reynolds numbers as compared to those in shear-thickening fluids (n > 1). Also, the values of the Strouhal number (Stc) and the time-average drag coefficient (C̅D) corresponding to the cessation of the steady-flow regime are presented. Velocity vector plots denoting the flow separation and vorticity profiles showing the vortex shedding are also included. The delineation of different flow regimes also helps identify the range of validity of some of the results on flow and heat transfer available in the literature.
