Experimental Study of Bubble Formation from a Micro-Tube in Non-Newtonian Fluid

Experimental Study of Bubble Formation from a Micro-Tube in Non-Newtonian Fluid

Over the last few years, microbubbles have found application in biomedicine. In this study, the characteristics of bubbles formed when air is introduced from a micro-tube (internal diameter 110 μm) in non-Newtonian shear thinning fluids are studied. The dependence of the release time and the size of...
