As industries rely more and more on magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) systems for different uses in power, production, and management of the environment, it becomes essential to optimize these operations. The study seeks to improve the effectiveness and productivity of cooling structures, chemical reaction reactors, and contaminant control methods by investigating these intricate interconnections. Because of this, the work scrutinizes the endothermic/exothermic (EN/EX) chemical processes, convective boundary conditions, and pollutant concentration impacts on MHD nanofluid circulation around a rotating sphere. The governing equations based on the above assumptions are reduced into a system of ordinary differential equations and solved numerically with Runge–Kutta Fehlberg’s fourth- and fifth- order schemes. The obtained numerical outcomes from the numerical scheme are presented with the aid of graphs, and the results show that the rate of mass transfer decreases with an increase in the external pollutant local source and solid volume percentage. For changes in the values of the activation energy parameter and solid fraction, the rate of thermal dispersion drops for the EN case and upsurges for the EX case. The concentration profile shows increment with the addition of the external pollutant source variation parameter and local pollutant external source parameter. The outcomes of the present work can be helpful in cooling equipment, developing advanced methods for controlling pollution, environmental management, MHD generators, and various industrial contexts.

Calcareous sand is easily broken under external force, which brings great difficulties to island reef engineering. Based on the particle flow program, a discrete element model that can reproduce the results of laboratory tests is established, the large principal stress method is introduced to identify the particle force chain, and the bond strength between particles is increased to obtain an unbreakable model with the same initial conditions, and different confining pressures are compared and analyzed. The evolution law of the force chain of the following two models establishes a macro-meso cross-scale analysis in the deformation process of calcareous sand, explores the internal mechanism of the crushing of calcareous sand particles. The results show that particle breakage plays an important role in the evolution of the force chain. Particle breakage will reduce the probability of the force chain on both sides of the axis, forcing the probability of the axial force chain to rise steadily. The macroscopic deviatoric stress is the external manifestation of the probability of the axial force chain on the meso level. The faster the probability of the force chain in the direction of the potential shear band increases, the more obvious the shear band is.

With the development of urbanization, there is an increasing demand for higher land utilization rates, leading to the emergence of high-rise residential and commercial complexes. Additionally, in coastal areas, the presence of soft soil and low bearing capacity of the foundation necessitate higher foundation bearing capacity. Large-diameter, super-long piles have been widely employed in engineering projects to address these challenges effectively. This study analyzes their vertical bearing characteristics through field load tests and determines vertical load distribution and transfer mechanisms by using Brillouin Optical Time Domain Reflectometry. A numerical computation and analysis method based on PLAXIS 3D was established, examining the effects of parameters such as pile diameter, length, and soil modulus on the vertical bearing characteristics. Results indicate that large-diameter, super-long piles mainly bear loads through side friction, with the tip bearing less load. As load levels increase, axial force increases linearly above 40 m depth and becomes nonlinear below. Frictional resistance is significant below 40 m at 3,700 kN load. Parameter analysis shows that increasing pile length and diameter enhances bearing capacity, suggesting this method to improve pile foundation capacity in engineering.

Many applications, including micro air vehicles, automotive, aerospace, refrigeration, mechanical–electromechanical systems, electronic device cooling, and micro heat exchanger systems, can be used to determine the heat flow in microchannels. Regarding engineering applications, heat flow optimization discusses the role of entropy production minimization. Therefore, this work explores new facets of entropy production in fully developed Carreau fluid heat transport in an inclined microchannel considering exponential space/temperature dependence, radiative heat flux, and Joule heating. The Carreau fluid model’s rheological properties are taken into account. Additionally, the influence of Hall slip velocity and convective boundary conditions is considered. Using appropriate transformation constraints, the governing equations are transformed into a system of ordinary differential equations, which are then numerically solved using the fourth- and fifth-order Runge–Kutta–Fehlberg method. Graphs illustrate a significant discussion of physical parameters on production of entropy, Bejan number, thermal field, and velocity. Our findings established that there is a dual impact of entropy generation for the exponential space/temperature-dependent, radiation parameter, Hall parameter, Weissenberg number, and velocity slip parameter. The Bejan number decreased with the Hall current and the Weissenberg number, and it enhanced with exponential space/temperature dependent. The convection constraint maximizes the entropy at the channel walls. The results are compared with exact solutions, which show excellent agreement.

Tetra hybrid nanofluids are significant due to their unique properties like thermal and electrical conductivity enhancement, increased heat transfer, and improved fluid flow characteristics. This attempt proposes a tetra hybrid cross nanofluid model with the implementation of cubic autocatalysis in the context of blood flow passing through a stenosis artery. The model includes the effects of nanofluid, magnetic field, thermal radiation, and the cubic autocatalysis mechanism. This research investigates the innovative application of cubic autocatalysis within the context of blood flow through a tetra hybrid cross nanofluid model, specifically designed to simulate conditions within a stenosis horizontal artery. The equations governing the fluid flow are solved using the bvp5c method, and the numerical solutions are obtained for various parameter values. Specifically, the cubic autocatalysis mechanism profoundly impacts the velocity and concentration profiles of the blood flow. The proposed model and the obtained results provide new insights into the physics of blood flow passing through stenosis arteries. They may have important implications for the diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular diseases. This article has a unique combination of tetra hybrid cross nanofluid model, cubic autocatalysis, and blood flow passing through the stenosis artery. These facts are not typically studied together in the context of blood flow.

In this study, the thermo-flow behaviours of the spiral tube were examined using water and some nanofluids such as TiO2, Al2O3, Fe2O3, CuO, ZnO, and CeO2. The computational flow dynamic modelling of the spiral coiled tube was performed with ANSYS 20 software program. The k–ε model with a standard wall function was used to simulate the thermo-flow characteristics. The solution of the governing equations was performed using the discretization method of finite volume. The study was carried out considering the case of fluid-to-fluid heat transfer in turbulent conditions. The influence of different key design parameters such as Reynolds number, different nanofluids, and flow arrangements was of main interest. The volume concentration of the nanofluids is 1%. The experiments were performed at different Reynolds ranges (9,000, 14,000, 20,000, and 25,000). The outlet temperature values, heat transfer coefficient, coefficient of friction, Nusselt number values of water, and nanofluids were found and compared. It was found that the outlet temperature, heat transfer coefficient, and Nusselt number values of water were the lowest, while the coefficient of friction value was the highest compared to the nanofluids. Among the nanofluids, CeO was found to have the highest outlet temperature, heat transfer coefficient, and Nusselt number value, as well as the lowest coefficient of friction value. TiO2 was found to have the lowest outlet temperature (Tout), the heat transfer coefficient value, and the highest coefficient of friction value. Al2O3 was found to have the lowest Nusselt number. In addition, Nusselt number values were obtained at different Dean numbers of water (2,200, 3,400, 4,900, 6,100, 7,350, and 8,600) and found to be compatible with previous studies. In addition, the coefficients of friction values of water at different velocities (0.18, 0.24, 0.41, 0.71, 0.95, 1.07, and 1.18) were obtained and found to be compatible with previous studies.

We have developed a novel rheo-optical measurement system based on two-dimensional polarization analysis, which can evaluate the rheological properties and structure of a complex fluid simultaneously. To assess the utility of the system, we used it to investigate the relationship between yield behavior and structural evolution in a TEMPO-oxidized cellulose nanofiber (T-CNF) suspension, which is a yield-stress fluid that has been actively studied in recent years. To analyze the structural evolution of a T-CNF suspension, stress-ramp tests were conducted. A two-step yield behavior was observed, and distributions of retardation and orientation axis varied dramatically with increasing shear stress. In particular, different distributions were observed in the three regions: after the first yield point, before the second yield point, and after the second yield point. In experiments with a low-concentration T-CNF suspension that exhibits no yield behavior, the retardation increased monotonically with increasing shear stress, and its distribution was uniform. It was demonstrated that the yield behavior and related structures can be analyzed from these results. More detailed structural mechanisms require various rheological tests using the developed system. However, the present insights demonstrate the valuable information provided by the developed rheo-optical measurement system, contributing essential knowledge for applications in various fields.
我们开发了一种基于二维偏振分析的新型流变光学测量系统，可以同时评估复杂流体的流变特性和结构。为了评估该系统的实用性，我们用它来研究 TEMPO 氧化纤维素纳米纤维（T-CNF）悬浮液中屈服行为与结构演变之间的关系。为了分析 T-CNF 悬浮液的结构演变，我们进行了应力斜坡试验。试验观察到了两步屈服行为，随着剪切应力的增加，延迟和取向轴的分布也发生了显著变化。特别是在三个区域观察到了不同的分布：第一个屈服点之后、第二个屈服点之前和第二个屈服点之后。在使用低浓度 T-CNF 悬浮液进行的实验中，该悬浮液没有屈服行为，其延迟率随剪切应力的增加而单调增加，且分布均匀。实验证明，可以从这些结果中分析屈服行为和相关结构。更详细的结构机制需要使用所开发的系统进行各种流变测试。不过，目前的研究结果表明，所开发的流变光学测量系统提供了宝贵的信息，为各个领域的应用提供了必要的知识。

This study conducted a series of true triaxial hydraulic fracturing experiments on Longmaxi Formation shale. We investigated the interaction between internal factors and external factors on the inter-well interference of 400 mm cubic porous specimens. During dual wellbore fracturing at different formations, forming inter-well interference through secondary hydraulic fractures lead to a lower interference intensity and larger stimulated rock area. When adopting a three-layer well layout during three-wellbore fracturing, the vertical distance between the wells is shortened, activating more bedding planes. Regardless of a horizontal well placement with two wellbores or a three-dimensional two-layer well placement with three wellbores, increasing the vertical stress leads to more potent inter-well interference. There is no absolute positive correlation between the stimulated rock area and inter-well interference. It can be influenced by the presence of natural fractures within the formation that can even lead to a reduction in the stimulated area. When the well placement changes from two horizontal wellbores to three-dimensional two-layer sites with three wellbores and the vertical stress increases, the inter-well interference becomes stronger, but the stimulated rock area only increases by 22.6%. These findings provide crucial guidance for the hydraulic fracturing design of shale reservoirs.

This work presents a viscosity model based on the Giesekus equation. The model is shown to be more flexible than the Cross and Carreau models in representing the shear-thinning behavior of viscoelastic fluids. It has been investigated that the influence of the model parameters on the viscosity showed that the mobility parameter α plays a distinctive role in adjusting the inflection shape of the viscosity curve. The results show that the new model is able to accurately capture the shear-thinning behavior of polystyrene data, while the Cross and Carreau models tend to underestimate and overestimate the viscosity at the inflection point, respectively. It has been also shown that the Yasuda-type modification is also applicable to the proposed model. Moreover, the viscosity model has been applied to simultaneously fitting a polymeric liquid system and a particulate slurry system. The new viscosity model is a promising tool for modeling the shear-thinning behavior of viscoelastic fluids in a wide range of applications.

The new viscosity model is a promising tool for modeling the shear-thinning behavior of viscoelastic fluids in a wide range of applications.","PeriodicalId":50738,"journal":{"name":"Applied Rheology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-04-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140799993","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Stress path change has a great relationship with the effect of deformation and strength of rock. However, the underground rock body is in the engineering environment where the stress field, seepage field, and other fields are coupled to change, the law of fluid flow in the rock body is complex and variable. The change in the stress field has an important effect on the seepage characteristics of rock body; therefore, it is necessary to study the pattern of rock permeability evolution pattern by different stress paths. This study is based on the study of limestone, conducting triaxial unloading seepage mechanics experiments, the evolution of permeability properties of limestone specimens was analyzed based on the test results. The results show that in the conventional triaxial loading seepage test, the permeability of the limestone decreases before the rock stress reaches the peak intensity and increases after that. Increasing axial pressure unloading surrounding pressure compression section, permeability loss rate and effective stress are in line with the changing law of Gaussian distribution function. Under the action of constant axial pressure unloading surrounding pressure, with the increase in unloading amount, the permeability rate of change appears to increase slowly, and in the late stage of unloading section, the permeability rate of change appears to surge. Unloading section permeability change rate and cumulative unloading amount are in line with the law of change of the exponential function. Creep unloading pressure seepage test found that unloading pressure stage strain-time and permeability-time evolution characteristics are in line with the exponential rule of change. The experimental results of this study can provide an important experimental and theoretical basis for the permeability analysis of low-permeability rock body under complex stress conditions in underground engineering.
