Theme:
Basically, the theme of this thesis is rheology and non-Newtonian fluid mechanics of viscoplastic fluids, measurements, computational rheology and CFD.
The above figure is from page 264 in my thesis (Figure 10.30). It shows the velocity profile inside a modified cone viscometer. For this figure, a Bingham fluid is applied with yield value and plastic viscosity of 200 Pa and 20 Pa.s, respectively. The top red region is the measuring unit and is stationary, while the rest of the boundary consist of a rotating bucket (here, rotating at 3 rad/s).
