This article explores how rheological analysis helps the food industry link microstructure to texture, stability and ...

A rheometer and powder flow tester can measure how pharmaceutical materials, such as powders from a hopper, flow. Analyzing the rheology or flow behavior of materials involves evaluating initial ...

Figure 5. Illustration showing an Ellis model fitted to the flow curve of a shear thinning liquid. Stress Ramp The shear stress ramp is one of the simplest and fastest ways of measuring yield stress ...

Yield points and flow points are important parameters for characterizing the behavior of dispersions during transport and application. In this case study, yield points and flow points of two ...

Feedwater control valves play a critical role in boiler operation. One important parameter of their design is the pressure drop at the rated condition as well as off-design conditions. However, ...

The idea behind this effort was to use one flow bench to test as many small-block and big-block Chevy cylinder heads as possible. By using one flow bench and the same test procedure, we eliminated ...

Choked flow in control valves is a subject of serious concern for industrial users. The term is usually associated with destructive process conditions that can damage valve internals or expose ...
