Numerical assessment of the penetroviscometer approach for large, rapid and transient shear deformations

Ahmad Fakhari, Francisco J. Galindo-Rosales

The rheological characterisation of complex fluids is mostly performed under simple shear flow in rotational rheometers. Their modern commercial versions are extremely sensitive in…

Secondary flows of viscoelastic fluids in serpentine microchannels

Lucie Ducloue, Laura Casanellas, Simon J. Haward +5

Secondary flows are ubiquitous in channel flows, where small velocity components perpendicular to the main velocity appear due to the complexity of the channel geometry and/or that…

Enhanced Microfluidic Mixing via a Tricritical Spiral Vortex Instability

Simon J. Haward, Robert J. Poole, Manuel A. Alves +3

Experimental measurements and numerical simulations are made on fluid flow through cross-slot devices with a range of aspect (depth:width) ratios, 0.4 < alpha < 3.87. For low Reyno…
