UNSTEADY FLOW OF THIXOTROPIC COLLAGEN SUBSTANCE IN PIPES

Unsteady flow of thixotropic liquid in pipes is solved by 1D and 2D numerical methods using the same constitutive equation — the only difference is in the radial diffusion of the structural parameter. Comparison shows that the neglected diffusion of structural parameter implicates a much stronger ef...
