Abstract

In this chapter velocity profiles and volumetric flow rate equations are developed from the equations of motion introduced in Chapter 3. From these equations a discussion of macroscopic flow phenomena is presented, including an analysis of friction factors in laminar and turbulent flow. Then non-Newtonian fluid behavior is discussed, from the point of view of Reynolds number-friction factor plots. Some examples of viscoelastic properties are then briefly presented, along with two-phase solid-liquid suspension flow. The chapter concludes with an analysis of some fluid flow phenomena by boundary layer theory.
