    Flow Loop Operating Pressure

    Hi guys, I'm working on a two-phase flow loop (water+air) and I'm estimating the pressure drop through a horizontal pipeline. I need to know how to calculate the operating pressure of the flow loop since I have a pump and compressor. Is there something called "equivalent operating pressure" of...

    Newtonian Pressure Drop vs Non-Newtonian Prssure Drop

    Is there any way to measure the shear stress in the flow loop by knowing the pump specs? Thanks

    Newtonian Pressure Drop vs Non-Newtonian Prssure Drop

    Latexman, I measured the density again using a modern device and I got 1.158(g/cm3) 1g and 1.1349(g/cm3) 2g. The concentration 2g/L is the maximum my flow loop can handle because I couldn't reach to the highest flow rates when the 2g fluid was flowing through the loop. I found good topics...

    Newtonian Pressure Drop vs Non-Newtonian Prssure Drop

    Thanks a lot for a quick response. Yes the velocities were the same for both. The purpose of the work was to compare the pressure drops at the same rates. The xanthan gum solution gets less viscous as the shear stress increases so, when we increase the flow rates, the shear stress increases...

    Newtonian Pressure Drop vs Non-Newtonian Prssure Drop

    Hi, I did some experiments on Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids measuring the pressure drop through a horizontal pipeline. The Newtonian two-phase flow was water+air and the non-Newtonian was (water+xanthan gum)+air. I prepared 2 samples (2 concentrations) of the xanthan gum solution 1g/1L...

    Looking For Pressure Drop Correlations Of Non-Newtonian Two-Phase Flow in The Pipeline

    Hi, Can anyone guide me to have good correlations or equations to measure the pressure drop of non-newtonian two-phase flow in the pipeline? Thanks
