4.1 Context and motivation
• Many industrial mixtures cannot reasonably be assumed to exhibit Newtonian behavior
• The design, control and optimisation of such processes cannot be properly achieved if one does not have a realistic, quantitative description of the fluid’s non-Newtonian behavior
• Therefore, it is critical that one knows how high-quality rheometrymeasurements are conducted
• Even if one never conducts rheometry measurements themselves, they still must be able to assess the quality and suitability of measurements that someone else has made!

Example 4.1Consider the figure given below, which shows the behaviour of a sample of “red mud” (tailings sample from the alumina/bauxite industry in Australia). Would you characterize this as “TIME-DEPENDENT” or “TIME-INDEPENDENT” behaviour? Justify your answer.

Example 4.2For the figure shown below, suggest which rheological model would best describe the rheogram (shear stress vs. shear rate curve) for the “Meat Extract”. Would the same model also fit the Carbopolrheogram? If not, which would most likely be a better fit?

Laminar, non-Newtonian pipeline flows• Integrated equations developed in the same way as for
the Newtonian, laminar flow case (see Lecture #2)
• Friction losses: use the integrated form of the selected rheology model
This applies to any rheological model…but let’s use the Bingham model as an example

Example 4.4Flow through a horizontal, 50 mm (diameter) pipeline is driven by a constant-speed positive displacement pump, such that the pressure gradient is always 1.58 kPa/m. If a Newtonian fluid ( = 65 mPas; = 1100 kg/m3) is pumped through the line, what will the operating velocity be?
What will the operating velocity be if a homogeneous mixture exhibiting Bingham fluid properties (p = 65 mPas; y = 10Pa) is pumped through the line? Assume the flow is laminar.

Interpretation of data
• Data regression (more work, more accurate)– Example 4.5
• Trial-and-error (less work, less accurate)– We will demonstrate this later in the course

Assignment #2 – due 1:00pm, Mon 10 July(Total = 30 marks)Prepare an Excel spreadsheet to calculate the bulk velocity of a homogeneous Bingham slurry, in laminar pipe flow, as a function of wall shear stress.
The spreadsheet should be designed such that the following inputs can be easily specified by the user: pipe diameter (D); slurry density (m); Bingham plastic viscosity (p) and Bingham yield stress (B).
The spreadsheet should provide to the user: a graph of wall shear stress (w) on the y-axis against average velocity (V) on the x-axis.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The maximum value of the average velocity shown on your graph should be Vt, the laminar-to-turbulent transition velocity. You will have to find an expression from the literature that allows you to predict Vt.
Hint: you cannot use the Newtonian version of the Reynolds number for the prediction of Vt!
Please email a copy of your spreadsheet to [email protected] later than the assignment submission date and time.
