It's a common misconception that fluids with different flow rate requirements always need separate pumps. In reality, that's not necessarily the case. Image Credit: Fluid Metering, Inc. When working ...

Researchers have uncovered new laws governing the flow of fluids through experiments on a technology that’s thousands of years old: a drinking straw. What they learned could be useful for improving ...

Explore how fluid flow, pressure and restriction affect water-cooled PCs, sim racing pedals and refinery pumps, and what ...

Water and oil, and some other simple fluids, respond in the same way to all levels of shear stress. These are termed Newtonian fluids, and their viscosity is constant for all stresses although it will ...

Recent advances in transient flow modeling have improved the ability to simulate PCPs under dynamic conditions. Modern computational studies focus on capturing transient effects such as pulsation, ...

Horiba has been granted a patent for a fluid control device that prevents unnatural flow rate behavior. The device includes a control valve, pressure sensors, a calculation unit, and an output unit.

Tests of a proposed friction-factor equation have shown it to be accurate for calculating pressure loss in turbulent flow for a pipeline transporting a non-Newtonian fluid, such as most crude oils and ...
