The carreau-yasuda fluids: a skin friction equation for turbulent flow in pipes and kolmogorov dissipative scales

Abstract: In this work the turbulent flow of the Non-Newtonian Carreau-Yasuda fluid will be studied. A skin friction equation for the turbulent flow of Carreau-Yasuda fluids will be derived assuming a logarithmic behavior of the turbulent mean velocity for the near wall flow out of the viscous sub layer. An alternative near wall characteristic length scale which takes into account the effects of the relaxation time will be introduced. The characteristic length will be obtained through the analysis of viscous region near… Show more

“…The Carreau-Yasuda-like model has been successfully used in the rheology area (such as polymers, asphalts), and thus was selected for the use of a non-linear regression model [35,36]. The Carreau-Yasuda-like model was as follows: ηfalse(tfalse)=η+false(η0ηfalse)×[1+(λt)α]β1α…”

“…The mass flow rates calculated using the Reynolds numbers with either the zero-shear viscosity in Eq. (6) or with the expression of Andrade et al (2007) in Eq. (10) show in Table 3 even larger inaccuracies and therefore they are here discarded for further consideration.…”
