  • The objective of the present study is to develop a new device that the viscous characteristics of fluids are determined by applying the unsteady flow concept to the traditional capillary tube viscometer. The capillary tube viscometer consists of a small cylindrical reservoir, capillary tube, a load celt system oat measures the mass flow rate, interfacers, and computer. Due to the small size of the reservoir the height of liquid in the reservoir decreases as soon as the liquid in the reservoir drains out through the capillary and the mass flow rate in the capillary decreases as the hydrostatic pressure in the reservoir decreases resulting in a decrease of the shear rate in the capillary tube. The instantaneous shear rate and. driving force in the capillary tube are determined by measuring the mass flow rate through the capillary, and the fluid viscosity is determined from the measured flow rate and the driving force.

  • When marine clay is hydraulically dredged from seabed and pumped into the pond enclosed by contatinment dykes, marine clay is mixed and flocculated with water and then settled. At this time, the fines will interact with the water to form a Bingham plastic slurry which has non-Newtonian characteristics. The dredged slurry has different physical properties depending on settling locations and settling depths in the pond and has few hundred percent of water content and almost nil of shear strenght. In order to make this condition of the dredged slurry the final formation for public use within a short period, sand spreading method to enhance the support capacity of the dredged slurry is developed. In this paper, the effect of sand mixing into the dredged slurry of this method is analyzed based on reference study, laboratory tests and actual construction results.

  • 비뉴톤 유체내에서 이동하는 섬유들과 대분자들은 경우에 따라 일정한 길이와 직경 을 갖는 원통형 물체로 간주될 수 있으므로 유체내에서 이들의 운동을 효과적으로 제어하기 위해서는 비뉴톤 유체내에서 이동하는 원통형 물체들의 길이비와 직경비에 의한 항력계수의 영향을 조사할 필요가 있다. 이러한 사실에 근거하여 원통형 물체의 길이비와 직경비 변화 가 물체의 항력계수비와 직경비를 기준으로한 항력계수비들은 작업유체로 사용된 일반화된 뉴톤 유체와 점탄성유체내에서 이동하는 원통형 물체들의 길이비와 직경비가 증가함에 따라 감소했다. 원통형 물체의 직경비가 0.007에서 0.029까지 변하고 길이비가 10에서 130까지 변 하는 경우 점탄성용액내에서의 항력계수비의 감소율은 일반화된 뉴톤 유체내에서의 항력감 소비의 감소율 보다 10배 내지 30배까지 더컸다. 또한 모든 작업유체에서 원통형 물체들의 항력계수비들은 Reynolds수가 증가함에 따라 감소됐다.

  • This article describes the numerical investigation of blood flow in the stenosed artery bifurcation with acceleration of the human body. Using the commercial software FLUENT, three-dimensional analyses were performed for six simulation cases with different body accelerations and bifurcation angles. The blood flow was considered to be pulsation flow, and the blood was considered to be a non-Newtonian fluid based on the Carreau viscosity model. In order to consider periodic body acceleration, a modified, time-dependent, gravitational-force term was used in the momentum equation. As a result, flow variables, such as flow rate and wall shear stress, increase with body acceleration and decrease with bifurcation angle. High values of body acceleration generate back flow during the diastolic period, which increases flow fluctuation and the oscillatory shear index at the stenosis.

  • This paper presents the impact of couple stress lubricant on performance of slot-entry hydrostatic/hybrid journal symmetric/asymmetric bearings. Reynolds Equation using Finite Element Technique has been solved for the flow of couple stress and Newtonian lubricants in bearings. The results have been computed for concentric design pressure ratio(${\beta}^{\ast}=0.5$), slot width ratio (SWR = 0.25) and chosen parameters of couple stress lubricant ${\bar{l}}=5$, 10, 15. It is observed that numerically simulated outcomes for slot-entry journal bearings, considering the influence of couple stress lubricant indicate a substantial improvement in the performance of the bearing.

  • By applying of total electric capacitance method on engine connecting rod bearing during engine operating, the influence of engine operating conditions and lubricants on bearing oil film thickness was investigated. Minimum oil film thickness increases with kinematic viscosity, but as increasing of viscosity, the increasing ratio of film thickness is reduced. Also minimum oil film thickness increases with engine speed but there is a limit. Above this limit, film thickness decreases in opposition because of crankshaft inertia. As increasing of engine torque and oil temperature, munimum oil film thickness decreases linearly. For non-Newtonian oils, the correlation between $100{\circ}C$ kinematic viscosity and munimum oil film thickness is very poor.

  • In the present work, the breakup mechanism of highly viscous epoxy paints discharged from a fan spray nozzle was examined experimentally. The paints tested were non-Newtonian fluids, composed of epoxy resin, solid particles and other additives. The paint spray discharged from the nozzle was visualized and recorded using a digital camera with back illumination. Due to presence of the solid particles, perforation of liquid sheet was observed in most cases, even at low-Reynolds number conditions (Re < 15,000) where the aerodynamic-wave breakup mode is used to be dominant for pure liquids. However, with the increase of the particle concentration, the sheet became longer and the thickness at breakup became thinner to some extent. This is because, with higher concentration of solid particles, the stabilizing effect by the viscosity increase predominates over the destabilizing effect by perforation.

  • The high degree of viscosity and the non-Newtonian fluid dynamics characterizes the process inside a glass furnace. Because the temperature is fluctuating in very short time-intervals, it is hard to determine that the status of its fluctuation is stable or unstable. Usually Shewhart-chart is used to determine the control status. However because of the characteristics of the temperature fluctuations in the glass furnace it does not directly serve the purpose here. Therefore we suggest using ARIMA to diagnose control status and confirm that the method using ARIMA can be a better tool than Shewhart-chart.

  • The main objective of the present study is to predict characteristics of three dimensional pulstitile flow by location of stenosis in blood vessel with the second order bifurcation. The present study simulates the incompressible non-Newtonian laminar blood flows using a Fluent V. 6.0. The Carreau model is employed as the constitutive equation for blood. The numerical simulation carried out at five cases without and with symmetry or asymmetry stenosis. It is found that the no stenosis and stenosis before first bifurcation do not have influence on flow at second bifurcated blood vessel. However, the stenosis after first biburcation has effect on flow at second bifurcated blood vessel.

  • In gravure printing, the amount of ink from cells has a great effect on the qualities of final printed products. And printability of final products is determined by every kinds variables. Ink transfer process is not verified scientifically because gravure cell is of small size and print speed is rapid. Therefore in order to study of ink transfer mechanism, this study is using the Computational Fluid Dynamics Evaluation. Polyflow 3-10 simulation software is used for considering of non-Newtonian flow. Among the various factors, this study have dealt with gravure cell types used computer simulation in order to define distinctive features in ink flow and transfer. The results of simulation, it defined the distribution of pressure, speed, stream function, viscosity, shear rate during the gravure printing. It is fined out the difficulties and characteristics according to the shape of cell types. Through this study, the condition of gravure printing is depending on the print condition and characteristic of cells.
