Flow Characteristics of Water-HPC Gel in Converging Tubes and Tapered Injectors

Gelled fuels combine the main advantages of liquid fuels (throttle ability) and solid fuels (easy handling, etc.) due to their non-Newtonian characteristics. In this paper, we study the flow characteristics of water-hydroxypropylcellulose (HPC) gel in converging tubes and tapered injectors which mim...
