Fluid Rheological Effects on the Flow of Polymer Solutions in a Contraction–Expansion Microchannel

A fundamental understanding of the flow of polymer solutions through the pore spaces of porous media is relevant and significant to enhanced oil recovery and groundwater remediation. We present in this work an experimental study of the fluid rheological effects on non-Newtonian flows in a simple lab...
