Abstract:Bubble motion in non-Newtonian fluids is widespread in various industrial processes such as crude oil extraction, enhancement of boiling heat transfer, CO<sub>2</sub> sequestration and wastewater treatments. Systems containing non-Newtonian liquids, as opposed to Newtonian liquids, have shear-dependent viscosity, which can alter the hydrodynamic characteristics of the bubbles, such as their size, deformation, instability, terminal velocity, shear rate, and ultimately affect the bubble rising behavi… Show more
