Example A non-Newtonian fluid is being pumped from one tank to another in a 0. 0348 m diameter pipe with a mass flow rate of 1. 97 kg/s. The total length of pipe between the tanks is 10 m. The difference of elevation from inlet to outlet is 3 m. The fittings include three long-radius 90 o flanged elbows, and one fully open angle valve. A filter present in the pipeline causes 100 k. Pa pressure drop. Set up a spread sheet to calculate the pumping requirements. The properties of the fluid are as follows: density = 1250 kg/m 3, consistency coefficient = 5. 2 Pa. sn, flow behaviour index = 0. 45 Prof. R. Shanthini 03 July 2019 Ans: 549. 04 W

Problem 7. 1: In a pasteurization treatment of fluid foods, devices in which the fluid circulates within a tube at the treatment temperature are usually employed. To ensure a satisfactory pasteurization, it is necessary that the microorganisms that circulate at the maximum velocity remain long enough in order to receive an adequate thermal treatment. A fluid food that has a density of 1250 kg/m 3 circulates through a 26. 7 mm internal diameter (3/4 in nominal diameter) with a 10, 000 kg/h mass flow rate. Calculate the value of maximum circulation velocity for the following two cases: (a) Clarified juice at 45 o Brix peach juice with a viscosity of 9 m. Pa. s (b) Egg yolk that presents a power law fluid behaviour, with K = 880 m. Pa. sn and n = 0. 20. Prof. R.

Data provided: = density = 1250 kg/m 3 d = diameter = 26. 7 mm w = mass flow rate = 26. 7/1000 m = 10, 000 kg/h Assignment: vmax = maximum velocity = ? Calculation starts: vm = mean velocity = mass flow rate / (cross-sectional area x density) = 3. 97 m/s Prof. R. Shanthini 03 July 2019
(a) Clarified juice at 45 o Brix peach juice with μ = 9 m. Pa. s Given is a Newtonian fluid Re = vm d / μ = 14, 718 That means, the given flow is turbulent. The ratio (vm / vmax) could be found using equation (7. 29): where c is given as follows: Since Re = 14, 718, we could use c = 7 in equation (7. 29) Therefore, vm / vmax = 0. 82, which leads to Prof. R. Shanthini 03 July 2019 vmax = vm / 0. 82 = 4. 86 m/s
Alternatively Figure 7. 8 can be used to get the maximum velocity as suggested in the text. vm / vmax = 0. 78, which leads to vmax = vm / 0. 78 = 5. 09 m/s Prof. R. Shanthini 03 July 2019 Note: vmax takes slightly different values in the alternative approaches, which is expected considering the approximate nature of the equation used and the graph read.
(b) Egg yolk that presents a power law fluid behaviour, with K = 880 m. Pa. sn and n = 0. 20. Given is a power law fluid Re. G = = 37, 828 That means, the given flow is turbulent. The ratio (vm / vmax) could be found using Figure 7. 9. Prof. R. Shanthini 03 July 2019
Reading at Re. G = 37, 828 and n = 0. 2 in Figure 7. 9, we get vm / vmax = 0. 92, which leads to vmax = vm / 0. 92 = 4. 31 m/s Prof. R. Shanthini 03 July 2019
Problem 7. 2: A fluid food whose density is 1200 kg/m 3 circulates at 25 o. C by a 5 -cm diameter pipe with a mass flow rate of 5000 kg/h. Determine the kinetic energy flow that the fluid transports if the following fluids circulate: (a) Concentrated peach juice at 69 o Brix with a viscosity of 324 m. Pa. s (b) Nonclarified rasberry juice (without pectin elimination) of 41 o Brix that has a pseudoplastic behaviour, with n = 0. 73 and K = 1. 6 Pa. sn (c) Apple puree that presents a Herschel-Bulkley behaviour, with n = 0. 47, K = 5. 63 Pa. sn and yield stress = 58. 6 Pa. In regard to transport conditions, a relationship between the yield stress and the shear stress on the wall of 0. 2 can be supposed. (d) Mayonnaise that behaves as a Bingham’s plastic with μ’ = 0. 63 Pa. sn and yield stress = 85 Pa. In this case, c = 0. 219 Prof. R.

(c) Apple puree that presents a Herschel-Bulkley behaviour, with n = 0. 47, K = 5. 63 Pa. sn and yield stress = 58. 6 Pa. In regard to transport conditions, a relationship between the yield stress and the shear stress on the wall of 0. 2 can be supposed. Given is a Herschel-Bulkley fluid Re. G = (equation 7. 7) = 62. 3 Re. G, critical (Figure 7. 4) depends on the generalized Hedstrom number (He. G) and the flow index He. G = (equation 7. 12 b) = 1093. 6 Re. G, critical = 2200 (approximately) Prof. R. Shanthini 03 July 2019
