Non-Newtonian Fluids for Industrial Applications

Gain a decisive competitive edge in the global push for sustainability by mastering the mathematical modeling and computational simulation of non-Newtonian fluids. This book bridges complex rheological theory with high-efficiency industrial applications across oil and gas, food processing, and biomedical engineering, equipping readers to optimize performance, reduce waste, and improve energy efficiency through advanced modeling and simulation.

In an industrial landscape increasingly defined by sustainability and energy efficiency, accurately simulating non-Newtonian fluid behavior has become a critical advantage. From biomedical precision to the massive scales of oil, gas, and food manufacturing, fluids that defy traditional Newtonian laws demand specialized approaches. This book focuses on mathematical modeling, computational techniques, and real-world industrial applications of non-Newtonian fluids, with in-depth coverage of flow behavior, heat transfer, and mechanical properties. Emphasis is placed on practical modeling and simulation, particularly in polymer processing, food production, and oil drilling. Bridging foundational rheological theory with advanced computational practice, the volume explores shear-thinning, shear-thickening, and viscoelastic behaviors, offering a comprehensive roadmap for navigating complex non-Newtonian dynamics in industrial settings.
