How to determine effective viscosity of a liquid mixture of Newtonian and Non-Newtonian fluid?

More Bhubesh Murugappan's questions See All

Can anyone suggest me what kind of contamination this would be and how to avoid it ? Or if this is not contamination what it might be ?

This happens in my brain cell culture. I'm using DMEM media. No negative influence on the growth of the cells.

Why is entropy of mixing not zero for ideal solutions?

Theoretically speaking, entropy should increase while mixing two ideal mixtures (from Second law of Thermodynamics). But when mixing happens at constant pressure, (deltaH) =(delta Q) and thus...

Ethylene glycol is newtonian or non newtonian fluid?

Some sources say it is treated as Newtonian as ethylene glycol has a higher viscosity than water, which affects the flow characteristics in simulations. But some also say it is non-Newtonian.

Read any regular textbook on Non-Newtonian fluids or Rheology, you will find plenty of information of there.

Xuqi Lin

I will choose the rheometer to describe its flow/viscosity curve.

Franz Werner

I can offer two publications as I have worked on this topic by examination polysaccharide solutions in Water.

Maybe the encolosed papers will help.

Yours sincerely
