Asymptotic analysis of the flow of shear-thinning foodstuffs in annular scraped heat exchangers
The problem of isothermal flow of a shear-thinning (pseudoplastic) fluid in the gap between two concentric cylinders is considered. A pump provides an axial pressure gradient which causes flow down the device. The outer cylinder is fixed and has 'scrapers' attached to it to cause flow mixi...
