Dimensionless velocity profiles and parameter maps for non-Newtonian fluids

Velocity profiles for non-Newtonian fluids corresponding to Ostwald de Waele, Prandtl-Eyring, Ellis, Reiner-Philippoff and generalized Bingham models have been expressed in terms of dimensionless parameters. For each fluid model, parameter maps have been obtained with different zones: one zone in wh...

Sumario:Velocity profiles for non-Newtonian fluids corresponding to Ostwald de Waele, Prandtl-Eyring, Ellis, Reiner-Philippoff and generalized Bingham models have been expressed in terms of dimensionless parameters. For each fluid model, parameter maps have been obtained with different zones: one zone in which the fluid should be represented by the original constitutive equation and other zones where the fluid velocity profile could be described with a simpler rheological model with an error less than 1%. © 1987.
