.... The numerical results are validated against the available experimental and numerical results. The results show that by increasing the non-Newtonian fluid power-law index, the ratio of average Nusselt number of the ith cylinder to the average Nusselt number of a single cylinder under identical thermal conditions...

... polynomial approximation viscosity spectral method non-Newtonian fluid Ellis fluid corrugated boundaries immersed boundary condition method There are many applications of the flows over corrugated boundaries. Some examples that are frequently observed are in modeling blood oxygenators ( 1...

... and non-Newtonian fluids in large scale systems. In other words, scaleup testing showed that existing models incorrectly predict results, and that experimental data are required to determine mass transfer coefficients for low superficial velocities or non-Newtonian fluids. Tests were performed...

..., the drag coefficient of a single bubble in non-Newtonian fluids in a moderate Reynolds number was correlated as a function of Re, Eo, and Archimedes number (Ar) based on the equivalent bubble diameter. The predicted results by the present correlation agree well with the experimental data. The rising...

...Ramin K. Rahmani; Theo G. Keith; Anahita Ayasoufi Static mixers are increasingly being used to perform a variety of mixing tasks in industries, ranging from simple blending to complex multiphase reaction systems. Use of static mixers to process non-Newtonian fluids is quite common. Data...
