In this study, we examined the industrial usability of frozen and thawed liquid egg yolk (LEY) by preparing lemon curd samples. Therefore, LEY frozen at-18°C was used to make lemon curd samples. LEY was stored for 90 days at -18°C and it was thawed with two different methods (in 2 hours, 35°C and in 24 hours, 5°C) on measurement days (day 1, 7, 14, 30, 60 and 90). After thawing of LEY samples, lemon curd samples were made by adding liquid egg white, butter, lemon juice and sugar. Ingredients were mixed by constant whisking over the steam of hot water. After that, butter was also added to the cream and it was cooled to 20°C. Rheological parameters of the lemon curd samples were examined with rotational rheometer. Shear stress data were recorded by increasing, than by decreasing shear rate values in the range of 10-1000 1/s. Herschel-Bulkley model was fitted to the flow curves of decreasing shear rate. Based on our measurements, we found that the thawing method of frozen liquid egg yolk does not affect the rheological properties of lemon curd made of them, but the length of the frozen storage does.

The article presents the results of research on the influence the type of base oil in lubricating compositions has on the rheological parameters of selected lubricants. Vegetable, mineral, and synthetic dispersion phases were used to produce lubricating greases. The modified amorphous silica was used as the dispersed phase. However, as a modifying additive was used a substance containing the antioxidants, corrosion inhibitors, and EP/AW additives. The experiments on rheological properties were carried out using a Physica MCR 101 rotational rheometer (manufactured by Anton Paar), equipped with a diffusion air bearing and connected to a pneumatic supply – an oil-free Jun-Air compressor and air drying block. The device is equipped with a Peltier system for temperature control in the range of –20°C to 200°C and an external thermostatic VISCOTHERM V2 system, working in the temperature range of –20°C to 200°C. The rheometer control and measurement data analysis were performed using Rheoplus software. The tests were carried out using a cone-plate measuring system with a shear rate range of 0.01–100 s-1 at 20°C for lubricating compositions prepared on various oil bases. To evaluate the value of rheological parameters, the results of tests of the dependence between shear stress and shear rate (flow curves) were used. For the theoretical determined on the flow curves, the following rheological models were used: Bingham, Herschel–Bulkley, Casson, and Tscheuschner. The values of the shear stress (yield point) in depending on the type of dispersion phase has changed. This proves that the use of a base oil with the appropriate functional properties does not weaken, but reinforces the spatial structure of a lubricating grease. It has an important meaning when selecting construction parameters when designing a central lubrication system with grease made from a vegetable oil base (Abyssinian oil). The rheological properties of the lubricating grease are influenced by the type of base oil and thickener, any additives in the grease, the production technology of the grease, and the conditions in which it is used. The tests revealed an important influence of the base oil on the rheological parameters that describe the behaviour of lubricating compositions subjected to stresses and strains in a lubricating system.

Eggs are widely utilized because of their high nutrient value, coagulating, foaming, emulsifying and sometimes even colouring or flavouring facilities in food manufacturing. Production of processed egg products shows an increasing trend. Frozen products belong to first processing, their shelf life can increase up to 1 year. By freezing, a large reduction in microbial loss can be achieved. But different undesirable processes can occur. The effect of freezing on animal cells is highly dependent on freezing parameters. It has a different effect on egg subtituents. Egg yolk undergoes a gelation process while proteins can denaturate. In our study pasteurized liquid egg products (liquid egg white, liquid egg yolk and liquid whole egg) were frozen by dripping into liquid nitrogen. After that, a 14-day frozen storage experiment was carried out at -18°C. Before freezing and on the 1th, 7th and 14th days of storage experiment pH, dry matter content, colour and calorimetric properties (denaturation temperatures and enthalpy of denaturation) with differential scanning calorimetry were tested. For statistical analysis, one-way ANOVA (α = 0.05) was employed. In our experiment, we found no significant change in calorimetric properties of liquid egg white after freezing, but significant decreasing of enthalpy and denaturation temperatures of liquid egg yolk and liquid whole egg was identified. In contrast, frozen storage had a decreasing effect in all these products. Freezing caused a clearly visible colour change in LEW, a visible change in colour of LWE and a very clearly visible change in colour of LEY. In case of LEW and LEY changes increased to clearly visible 14 days. In conclusion, our results show that frozen storage had a greater effect on liquid egg products properties than freezing in liquid nitrogen.

By the method of capillary viscosimetry, the melt flow curves of the molded phenolic resin and its compositions with lubricant, plasticizer and their mixture were obtained. It was shown that the size (diameter) of the capillary channel influences the dependence of the effective shear rate on the shear stress (flow curves) of the studied compositions. Such rheological behavior of the compositions during flow is associated with the effect of sliding along the surface of the capillary wall. According to the Mooney method, the dependences of the effective shear rate at given values of shear stress on the reciprocal of the capillary radius are plotted. The function of the slip velocity on the shear stress on the capillary wall is characterized in terms of the slip coefficient, which relates the shear stress on the capillary wall to the velocity of the composition along it. For the studied compositions, the total flow through the capillary was divided into volume fractions, one of which is associated with a shear flow; the other is determined by the slip effect. It has been shown that the introduction of both a lubricant and a plasticizer into the composition leads to an increase in the fluidity of the compositions. At the same time, adding of lubricant increases the volume fraction of the slip flow. The greatest effect of increasing the fluidity of the composition gives the use of complex modifying additives containing both lubricant and plasticizer.

Abstract The yield stresses of five samples (two highly concentrated emulsions, two Kaolin dispersions and mayonnaise) were determined in two ways. In one case, steady shear experiments were performed over a range of incrementally decreasing shear rates. The resulting flow curves, plotted as shear stress against shear rate, clearly showed the existence of a yield stress for each sample, the Herschel-Bulkley model being fitted to obtain values. In the second case, oscillatory amplitude sweeps were performed at three frequencies, and the “dynamic yield stress” was defined as the stress at which deviation from linearity occurred; this procedure has often been used to determine the yield stress of emulsions. It was found that the dynamic yield stress is frequency dependent, and cannot therefore be thought of as physically meaningful material property. At no frequency did the dynamic yield stress correlate with the yield stress obtained from the flow curves.

In this work the rheological behavior of two varieties of honey were evaluated using a Brookfield viscometer R.V.T in a temperature range of 5-20°C. In order to interpret the experimental results in terms of viscosity, the torque-speed data and scale readings were converted into shear stress-shear rate relations using numerical conversion values proposed by Mitschka. This method offers excellent potential for quality control testing in the food industry. Samples exhibited Newtonian behavior and the temperature effect on the viscosity followed an Arrhenius-type relationship.

A knowledge of the variation of melt viscosity of thermoplastic polymers with both shear rate and temperature is of considerable importance to plastics engineers as well as to polymer rheologists. The Actual measurement of melt viscosity at large number of temperatures and shear rates is frequently a tedious and time-consuming task. The experimental validity for superimposing Log shear stress – Log shear rate curves at different temperatures along the log shear rate axis has been established for the mixture of (polycarbonate and polyacrylonitrile butadiene styrene). The temperature dependence of the resultant shift factors has been determined to predict viscosities as a function of temperature and shear rate is discussed

A series of laboratory wave-flume experiments was conducted to investigate the dissipation of monochromatic regular waves on a horizontal muddy bed of commercial kaolinite. The rheological parameters of kaolinite samples with different water content ratios were obtained from controlled shear rate tests using the rheometer. The flow curves of shear stress versus shear rate were found to be essentially Bingham viscoplastic medium for steady unidirectional mud flows of the rheological tests. Assuming Bingham behavior for kaolinite, a wave-mud interaction model was employed to obtain the values of the wave attenuation coefficients. Comparisons between the measured and simulated results show a good agreement.

AbstractThe rheological characterization of concentrated suspensions is complicated by the heterogeneous nature of their flow. In this contribution, the shear viscosity and wall slip velocity are quantified for highly concentrated suspensions (solid volume fractions of 0.55–0.60, D4,3 ~ 5 µm). The shear viscosity was determined using a high-pressure capillary rheometer equipped with a 3D-printed die that has a grooved surface of the internal flow channel. The wall slip velocity was then calculated from the difference between the apparent shear rates through a rough and smooth die, at identical wall shear stress. The influence of liquid phase rheology on the wall slip velocity was investigated by using different thickeners, resulting in different degrees of shear rate dependency, i.e. the flow indices varied between 0.20 and 1.00. The wall slip velocity scaled with the flow index of the liquid phase at a solid volume fraction of 0.60 and showed increasingly large deviations with decreasing solid volume fraction. It is hypothesized that these deviations are related to shear-induced migration of solids and macromolecules due to the large shear stress and shear rate gradients.
