A numerical investigation was carried out to study the laminar non-Newtonian flow through an axisymmetric sudden expansion having a diameter ratio of 1 to 2.6. The fluids were inelastic and shear thinning with a viscosity obeying the power law model. The recirculation length and strength and, most i

The influence of shear thinning on drop deformation is examined through a numerical simulation. A two-dimensional formulation within the scope of the boundary element method (BEM) is proposed for a drop driven by the ambient flow inside a channel of a general shape, with emphasis on a convergentdive
Droplets-laden turbulent flow downstream of a sudden pipe expansion has been investigated by using Euler/Euler two-fluid model for the gaseous and dispersed phases. Significant increase of heat transfer in separated flow at the adding of evaporating droplets has been demonstrated (more than 2 times
