An SPH Approach for Non-Spherical Particles Immersed in Newtonian Fluids

Artifcial neural network approach for the prediction of terminal falling velocity of non-spherical particles through Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids

The investigation of the terminal falling velocity of non-spherical particles is currently one of the most promising topics in sedimentation technology due to its great signifcance in many separation processes. In this study, the potential of Artifcial Neural Networks (ANNs) for the prediction of nonspherical particles terminal falling velocity through Newtonian and nonNewtonian (power law) liq...

Non-Newtonian Fluids: An Introduction

The objective of this chapter is to introduce and to illustrate the frequent and wide occurrence of non-Newtonian fluid behaviour in a diverse range of applications, both in nature and in technology. Starting with the definition of a nonNewtonian fluid, different types of non-Newtonian characteristics are briefly described. Representative examples of materials (foams, suspensions, polymer solut...

simulation of particle motion in non-newtonian fluids by immersed boundary lattice boltzmann method

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-...

Heat Transfer of Liquid/ Solid Fluidized Beds for Newtonian and Non-Newtonian Fluids

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 ...
