The control of ice cream powder mixture production is carried out evaluating the ice cream liquid phase. The present study was conduced on ice cream and unfrozen liquid phase in order to indirectly evaluate the rheological properties by measuring the powder mixture. The calibration set was formed by samples with different percentage of thickeners, maintaining constant the concentration of the other remaining compounds. After the NIR acquisitions the powders were mixed with warm milk, blended and than settled in order to obtain the unfrozen liquid phase needed for the rheological measurements. For each recipe three batches were prepared. The flow curves were evaluated by using the Ostwald de Waele’s equation and the goodness of fit was evaluated by the R2, which was above 0.95. Predictive models of rheological parameters were set up by means of PLS regressions in order to predict the consistency coefficient (K) and the flow behavior index (n) from spectral acquisitions. High correlation of calibration was found for both parameters and NIR spectra obtaining R2 of 0.884 for K and 0.874 for n. The good prediction of the models encourages applying them to reduce significantly the time of the powder mixing control during production.

Gas holdup was investigated in a gas-liquid and gas-liquid-solid reciprocating plate column (RPC) under various operation conditions. Aqueous carboxymethyl cellulose (sodium salt, CMC) solutions were used as the liquid phase, the solid phase was spheres placed into interplate spaces, and the gas phase was air. The gas holdup in the RPC was influenced by: the vibration intensity, i.e., the power consumption, the superficial gas velocity, the solids content and the rheological properties of the liquid phase. The gas holdup increased with increasing vibration intensity and superficial gas velocity in both the two- and three-phase system. With increasing concentration of the CMC PP 50 solution (Newtonian fluid), the gas holdup decreased, because the coalescence of the bubbles was favored by the higher liquid viscosity. In the case of the CMC PP 200 solutions (non-Newtonian liquids), the gas holdup depends on the combined influence of the rheological properties of the liquid phase, the vibration intensity and the superficial gas velocity. The gas holdup in the three-phase systems was greater than that in the two-phase ones under the same operating conditions. Increasing the solids content has little influence on the gas holdup. The gas holdup was correlated with the power consumption (either the time-averaged or total power consumption) and the superficial gas velocity.

Abstract Two-phase flow of gas/yield Pseudoplastic fluids can be found in different industrial applications like the chemical processes, oil industry, and petroleum transport in pipelines. In this study, experimental and numerical investigation of the influence of Rheological properties of non-Newtonians fluids in two-phase flow (gas/yield Pseudoplastic fluids) on slug characteristics in an upward vertical flow were performed. Different concentrations of Xanthan gum solutions (0.05%, 0.10%, and 0.15%, by w/w), which are referred to as non-Newtonian, yield Pseudoplastic behavior used as the working liquids and air as a gas. The experiments were conducted in an open-loop re-circulating system has a total length of 65 m to ensure phase mixing, and authorize flow regime patterns to develop. The vertical pipe has a diameter of 76.3 mm. API-compliant 8-speed rotational viscometer model 800 was used to measure the rheological properties of non-Newtonian fluids. Flow visualization and recording videos were achieved by A high-speed camera to a comparison between behavior of Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids in the two-phase model. Pressure transducers used to measure high-response pressure. Computational fluid dynamics software (ANSYS fluent 2019 R3) was used for the numerical investigation. The volume of fluid (VOF) model has been chosen for tracking immiscible fluids. CFD simulation results compared to the experimental data. The slug behavior and shape were noticed to be affected by changing the rheological properties of the liquid phase. with increasing XG concentration at the same operations conditions, we found that non-uniform and random distribution of small bubbles due to the effective viscous force of a liquid phase.

The paper outlines the effects of polymer conditioning on alum sludge properties, such as floc size, density, fractal dimension (DF) and rheological properties. Experimental results demonstrate that polymer conditioning of alum sludge leads to: larger floc size with a plateau reached in higher doses; higher densities associated with higher doses; increased degree of compactness; and an initial decrease followed by an increase of supernatant viscosity with continued increase in polymer dose. The secondary focus of this paper dwells on a comparison of the estimates of optimum dose using different criteria that emanate from established dewatering tests such as CST, SRF, liquid phase viscosity and modified SRF as well as a simple settlement test in terms of CML30. Alum sludge was derived from a water works treating coloured, low-turbidity raw waters.

The main goal of this work is the analysis of rheological properties of steel alloy at high temperatures, just below the solidus point, and in the semi-solid state with low liquid phase content. Data obtained from the analysis can form the basis of numerical simulation for designing and optimizing the thixoforming processes. The rheological properties should be known over a wide temperature range so that the simulations could also predict defects such as incomplete die filling. The analysis concerned M2 tool steel alloy. The paper also discusses development of globular microstructure in partially melted steel.

An experimental investigation is described concerning the effect of the existence of a remanent magnetization of the dispersed particles on the rheological properties of magnetorheological fluids (MRF). Two MRF's were used: (1) solid phase: cobalt ferrite particles + silica gel (1.5% w/w); liquid phase: silicone oil (viscosity 20 mPa·s); and (2) solid phase: carbonyl iron + silica gel; liquid phase; silicone oil. The cobalt ferrite particles were synthetized as monodisperse colloidal spheres with an average diameter of 850 nm. The dependence of the dimensionless shear stress (τ⋆/ϕ) vs. Mason number (Mn) fails to scale when a "magnetorheological hysteresis procedure" is followed, specially for the higher volume fractions used (≈ 7.5%). The yield stress (τy) is first estimated from successive rheograms obtained decreasing the external field (H0) values for different ϕ. A more precise determination can be done by applying a stress ramp in the oscillatory regime. The critical stress amplitude (τc) needed to exceed the viscoelastic linear region (VLR) is obtained. It is found that both τy and τc strongly depend on the magnetic history of the sample. As expected, the previous results were not obtained in a classical MRF of carbonyl iron particles since they do not present magnetic hysteresis. We conclude that cobalt ferrite suspensions are an other kind of MRF which works at low fields (0 – 17.8 kA/m) with the opposite effect: decrease of the yield stress with the field. This property can be improved using particles with stronger remanent magnetization.

The power consumption in a gassed reciprocating plate column with Rashig rings placed in interplate spaces increases with both increasing vibration intensity and content of solid particles but decreases with increasing the superficial gas velocity, regardless of the rheological properties of the liquid phase. Under the same operating conditions, the power consumption is higher when the column is filled with a non-newtonian liquid than with distilled water.
