Breakdown to turbulence in non-Newtonian flow

Transition to turbulence in polymeric channel flow is investigated, with the FENE-P model used to characterize the viscoelastic behaviour of the flow. Simulations are performed to study transition through both the natural and bypass routes. In the linear growth regime of natural transition, differen...
