rheological characteristics of al2o3, cuo and tio2 nano particles were investigated in oil asthe base fluid at 1 and 2 wt.%. constitutive relations for non-newtonian fluid were discussedbased on the power-law model. measured viscosities of each nanofluid were used to evaluatethe power-law and consistency index. results indicated that the nanofluid viscosity decreasedby increasing the concentrat...

low grade grape juice concentrate was used as carbon source for xanthan production. significant factors affecting xanthan concentration, productivity and viscosity were investigated using plackett-burman design. based on the obtained results, carbon and nitrogen concentrations, inoculum size and agitation rate, were assumed as significant factors. broth culture viscosity and xanthan concentrati...

Background: The study of rheological properties of blood has special interest since it is a circulating fluid exposed to shear rates during its life time. This work aims to investigate the influence of whole body gamma irradiation on the rheological properties of rat’s blood. The applied shear rate was from 12 to 375 s-1. Low shear viscosity (up to 100 s-1) depends mainly on the erythroc...

bis(indenyl)zirconium dichloride as a catalyst was synthesized using a modified method at the room temperature. polymerization of ethylene and copolymerization of ethylene and propylene were carried out by this metallocene catalyst. ethylene propylene (p/e) feed ratios of 0.25, 0.5, 1, and 2 were employed into the copolymerization systems. copolymerization conditions like cocatalyst/catalyst ra...

In the second self-creation theory of gravitation and in the general theory of relativity, Bianchi type VI0 cosmological model in the presence of viscous fluid is studied. An exact solution of the field equations is given by considering the cosmological model yields a constant decelerations parameter q=constant and the coefficients of the metric are taken as A(t)=[c1t+c<su...

the physicochemical properties of solute in solutions provide valuable information on solute –solvent, solute – solute and solvent – solvent interactions. the intermolecular forces between theliquids molecules and solvent molecules affect the viscosity of the solution. information regardinginter and intra molecular interactions can be obtained from volumetric, and viscometric data in asolute so...

   Drilling fluids are an essential component of the rotary drilling process used to drill for oil and gas on land and offshore environments. The injection of this nano particle into drilling fluid increases the viscosity levels fluids. In these experiments, the rheological properties of the fluid including apparent viscosity (AV), plastic viscosity (PV), yielding point (YP), mud c...

the present investigation entails a procedure by which the surface tension and viscosity of liquids could be redicted.to this end, capillary experiments were performed for porous media by utilizing fifteen different liquids and powders. the time of capillary rise to a certain known height of each liquid in a particular powder was recorded. two artificial neural networks (anns) were designed and...
