The relation between the Reynolds number and differential producer discharge coefficient
was obtained through solutions to the steady, Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes equations …

Numerous investigations have shown that ANN can be successful for correlating
experimental data sets for macroscopic single phase flow characteristics. The approach …

The three-field (stress–velocity–pressure) mixed formulation of the incompressible Navier–
Stokes problem can lead to two different types of numerical instabilities. The first is …

This paper presents results on the CFD-based estimation of loss coefficients for typical
pipeline elements in the case of Bingham and power law fluids. The actual elements are …

Abstract External Gear Pumps are used in various industries to pump non-Newtonian
viscoelastic fluids like plastics, paints, inks, etc. For both design and analysis purposes, it is …

Local resistance characteristics of coal–water slurry (CWS) flowing through three types of
piping components, namely gradual contractions, sudden contractions and 90° horizontal …

In this study, the effects of various parameters such as power-law index of fluid (with the
value of n 0.3–0.9), flow rate (0.1–2.0 m/s), pipe inner diameter (0.01–0.05 m) and operating …

Industrial processes with non-Newtonian fluids are common in many segments such as
petroleum, cosmetic, and food industries. Slurries, emulsions, and gas–liquid dispersions …

The volume of fluid (VOF) model together with the continuum surface stress (CSS) model is
proposed to simulate the core annular of non-Newtonian oil and water flow through the …

Abstract Knowledge of how the presence of a bend can change the flow patterns of a gas–
liquid mixture is important for the design of multiphase flow systems, particularly to prevent …
