✦ Synopsis


New extensive pressure drop-flow rate data are reported for the creeping flow of well characterised viscoelastic polymer solutions through packed beds of mixed size spheres and of spheres and cylinders. It is established that the effective mean surface diameter is adequate in correlating the pressure loss data in flow through packed beds of mixed size and shape. A distinct correlation exists between the excess pressure loss observed with viscoelastic fluids and the Weissenberg number.

On presente une grande quantite de nouvelles donnees de debit-perte de charge pour I'ecoulement rampant de solutions de polymeres viscoelastiques bien caracterisees dans des lits garnis de spheres de diverses tailles et garnis de spheres et de cylindres. II est etabli que le diamktre de surface moyen effectif est adequat pour les correlations de perte de charge dans I'koulement dans les lits garnis de tailles et de formes diverses. II existe une correlation distincte entre la perte de charge d'exces observee avec les fluides viscoelastiques et le nombre de Weissenberg.

The literature represents the buoyancy force on particles in a Β―uidized bed in two different ways: one is based on the density of the Β―uid alone and the other is based on the density of the suspension comprised of the Β―uid and solid. To clarify this problem is especially important for mixing/segrega

In this paper, we consider viscoelastic stresses T 11 , T 12 and T 22 arising in the stagnation flow of a dilute polymer solution; in particular, we consider an upper convected Maxwell (UCM) fluid. We present exact solutions to the coupled partial differential equations describing the viscoelastic s
