Measurements of the bulk and interfacial velocity profiles in oscillating Newtonian and Maxwellian fluids
M. Torralba, J. R. Castrejon-Pita, A. A. Castrejon-Pita +3
We present the dynamic velocity profiles of a Newtonian fluid (glycerol) and a viscoelastic Maxwell fluid (CPyCl/NaSal in water) driven by an oscillating pressure gradient in a ver…

Optimal behavior of viscoelastic flow at resonant frequencies
A. A. Lambert, G. Ibanez, S. Cuevas +1
The global entropy generation rate in the zero-mean oscillatory flow of a Maxwell fluid in a pipe is analyzed with the aim at determining its behavior at resonant flow conditions.…

Experimental Observation of Differences in the Dynamic Response of Newtonian and Viscoelastic Fluids
J. R. Castrejon-Pita, J. A. del Rio, A. A. Castrejon-Pita +1
In this paper we present an experimental study of the dynamic responses of a Newtonian fluid and a Maxwellian fluid under an oscillating pressure gradient. We use laser Doppler ane…
