Fluids
Types of Fluids
1) Newtonian Fluids
2) Non-Newtonian Fluids
Newtonian Fluids:
Those fluids which follow Newton law of viscosity.
when shear stress is plotted against shear rate at a
given temperature, the plot shows a straight line with
a constant slope that is independent of shear rate.
Fluid such as water, air, ethanol, and benzene are
Newtonian fluids.
Non-Newtonian fluids
Any fluids that do not obey the Newtonian relationship
between shear stress and shear rate are nonNewtonian. Aqueous solutions of high molecular
weight polymers or polymer melts, and suspensions of
fine particles are usually non-Newtonian.
Non-Newtonian Fluids
blood
grease
toothpaste
cake batter
ketchup
polymer melt
Non-Newtonian Fluids
molten
metal
paint
whipped
cream
Power-law Model
One of the most widely used forms of the general nonNewtonian constitutive relation is a power-law model, which
can be described as
Cross Model
In above equation
0 and are the viscosities at very
low and high shear rates, respectively
m and n are the model constants.
At an intermediate shear rate, the
Cross model behaves like a power-law
model. However, unlike the power-law
model, the Cross model produces
Newtonian viscosities (0 and ) at
both very low and high shear rates.
In above equation
y is a constant that is interpreted as yield
stress
m B is a model constant that is interpreted
as plastic viscosity.
Basically, the Bingham plastic model can
describe the viscosity characteristics of a
fluid with yield stress whose viscosity is
independent of shear rate. Therefore, the
Bingham plastic model does not have the
ability to handle the shear-thinning
characteristics of non-Newtonian fluids.
Casson Model
This model was originally introduced by
Casson (1959) for the prediction of the
flow behavior of pigment-oil suspensions.
The Casson model is based on a structure
model of the interactive behavior of solid
and liquid phases of a two-phase
suspension. The model describes the flow
of viscoplastic fluids that can be
mathematically described as follows
Herschel-Bulkley Model
The Herschel-Bulkley model extends
the simple power-law model to
include a yield stress as follows
Powell-Eyring Model
In Process industries we deal different types of nonnewtonian fluids so their properties helpful in
processes as
Liquids and semisolids are usually pumped during
processing, so in case of fluids if we now properties of
non-newtonian fluids we avoid problems like
caviation,bubbles etc.
If we know properties of different non-newtonain fluid
then we better tackle different non-nowtonian fluids
