In this study, using the governing equations for thermohydrodyamic lubrication involving the homogeneous mixture of incompressible fluid derived by based on the principle of continuum mechanics, it is discussed the effects of water dispersed within engine oil on the performance of high speed journal bearing of a turbocharger. The governing equations are the general equations being able to be applied on the mixture of Newtonian fluid and non-Newtonian fluid. Here, the fluid viscosity index, n of power-law non-Newtonian fluid is supposed to be 1 for the application of the journal bearing on a turbocharger lubricated with the mixture of two Newtonian fluids, water dispersed within engine oil. The results related with the bearing performance are showed that the friction force and bearing load capacity decrease as increasing the volume percent of water.

Three-dimensional optimum design of coat-hanger die is performed using power-law and Carreau models. It is found that the three-dimensional optimum design algorithm shows good convergence with the non-Newtonian fludis. the nore realistic optimum design is accomplished by employing Carreau model with the three-dimensional design method. The effect of vixcosity modles is investigated by comparing the optimum manifold profiles and flow rate distributions of power-law and Carreau modles. Through the accurated viscosity representation of Carreau model, the effect of total flow rate on the optimum manifold profile is investigated.

Considerable interest has evolved in the flow of non-Newtonian fluids in channels of noncircular cross section in compact heat exchanges. Analytical solution was developed for prediction of the flow rate and maximum velocity in steady laminar flow of any incompressible, time-independent non-Newtonian fluids in straight closed and open channels of arbitrary, but axially unchanging cross section. The geometric parameters and function of shear describing the behavior of the fluid model were evaluated for fluid flow among a bundle of rods arranged in triangular and square array. Numerical values of dimensionless maximum velocities, mean velocities, pressure-drop-flow parameters and friction factors were evaluated as a function of porosity and pitch-to-radius ratio.

As a macromolecule material, melted rubber flow shows characteristics of shear thinning fluid. The dynamic viscosity of this rubber fluid is influenced by temperature and shear strain rate. In this study, the numerical simulation of rubber extrusion forming process has been performed using commercial CFD code, Polyflow. Power-law model considering the effect of shear rate is used for the computer simulation of this non-Newyonian flow. Also Non-isothermal behavior is considered as Arrhenius-law model. Distributions of velocity and temperature are predicted through the simulation.

The pressure loss coefficient of Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids such as water, aqueous solutions of Carbopol-934 and Separan AP-273 and blood in the stenotic tubes are determined experimentally and numerically. The numerical analyses for flows of non-Newtonian fluids in the stenotic tubes are conducted by the finite element method. The effect of the contraction ratio and the ratio of length to diameter on the pressure drop are investigated by the experiments and numerical analysis. The pressure loss coefficients are significantly dependent upon the Reynolds number in the laminar flow regime. As Reynolds number increases, the pressure loss coefficients of both Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids decrease in the laminar flow regime. As the ratio of length to diameter increases the maximum pressure loss coefficient increases in the laminar flow regime for both Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids. Newtonian fuid shows the highest values of pressure loss coefficient and blood the next, followed by Carbopol solution and Separan solution in order. Experimental results are used to verify the numerical analyses for flows of Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids. Numerical results for the maximum pressure loss coefficient in the stenotic tubes are in fairly good agreement with the experimental results. The relative differences between the numerical and experimental results of the pressure loss coefficients in the laminar flow regime range from 0.5% to 14.8%.

The objective of this study is to get simulation data about pulsatile flow of a non-Newtonian fluid through a bifurcated tube. All the process was based on CFD method, with a commercial FVM code, SC/Tetra ver. 6.0 for solving, and with CATIA R16 for generating geometries. To define a non-Newtonian fluid, the following viscous models are used; the Powell-Eyring model, the modified Powell-Eyring model, the Cross model, the modified Cross model, the Carreau model, the Carreau-Yasuda model and the modified Power Law model. The flow calculation data using each model were compared with the other data of a existing paper. Finally, the Carreau model was recognized to give the best result with the SC/Tetra code, and the succeeding simulations are made with the model. For the pulsating flow condition, the sine wave type velocity profile is given as the inlet boundary condition. To investigate the effect of geometries and mesh, the pre-test is carried out with various curvature conditions of the bifurcated corner, and then with various mesh conditions. The final process is to calculate flow variables such as the wall shear stress (WSS) and the wall shear stress gradient (WSSG). To validate all the result, the simulation is compared with the existing data of the other papers. Generally speaking, there is a noticeable difference in the maximum and minimum value of WSS. It is not sure that the values in each data are on the exactly same location. However, the overall trend is similar. The next study needs to investigate the same situation by experimental method. Furthermore, if the flow is simulated with more pulsatile conditions, more data of flow field through a bifurcated tube could be achieved.

압축 유동하에서 측정된 시멘트 페이스트의 수직 응력은 변형률의 증가에 따라 변형률이 0.0003에서 0.003 사이 구간인 탄성 고체 구간과 변형률이 0.003에서 0.8 사이 구간인 변형률 경화 구간으로 나누어진다. 두 구간 중 변형률 경화 영역에서 유변학적 특성을 분석하기 위해 모델링 식이 제안되었다. 첫째, 유체 거동의 관점에서, 지수법칙 일관성 지수 m=700 및 멱지수 n=0.2를 갖는 지수법칙 비뉴토니언 모델이 적용되었다. 적용 결과는 탄성 고체 구간을 제외하고는 실험 결과와 좋은 일치를 보여주었다. 둘째, 연성 고체 거동의 관점에서 힘 평형 모델이 적용되었으며, 하중을 측정하는 센서부와 시멘트 페이스트 표면 간의 마찰 계수가 실험데이터에 반구간탐색법을 적용하여 변형률의 다항식으로 도출되었다. 적용 결과는 변형률이 0.003에서 0.3 사이 구간인 중간 영역에서만 실험 결과와 좋은 일치를 보여주었다. 따라서, 압축 유동 하의 시멘트 페이스트의 유변학적 거동은 변형률 경화 구간에서 연성 고체 거동의 관점보다는 지수법칙 비뉴토니언 유체 거동의 관점에서 실험 결과와 더 일치함을 보여주었다.

본 연구에서는 곡관 채널에서의 비뉴튼 젤 추진제의 유동 특성에 대해 연구하였다. 물을 기본유체로 하는 모사젤을 Carbopol 941 젤화 작용제와 NaOH 농축액을 혼합하여 제작하였으며 입자 유무에 따른 유동 특성을 파악하기 위해 $Al_2O_3$ 나노 입자가 첨가된 젤을 제작하여 두 젤 추진제간의 유변학적 특성을 비교하였다. 두 모사젤에 대해 U-자형의 곡관부 위치별 유동특성과 Dean 와류(vortices)의 경향은 상이하였으나 나노 입자가 첨가된 모사젤 추진제의 경우 높은 컨시스턴시 지수에도 불구하고 두 모사젤 모두 비슷한 범위의 임계 Dean 수를 도출하였다. 나노 입자 첨가 유무와 무관하게 power-law 지수값이 임계 Dean 수를 결정하는데 주요 변수임을 판단할 수 있었으나 나노입자가 첨가된 젤의 경우 Dean 와류 강도의 변동폭이 상대적으로 크다는 결론을 내릴 수 있었다.
