Product: Abaqus/CFD
Benefits: Many fluids of industrial, technological, and biological significance (such as foams, emulsions, dispersions and suspensions, slurries, blood, and polymeric melts) are non-Newtonian in nature. Simulation of flows involving such fluids can be achieved using the non-Newtonian models developed in Abaqus/CFD, thereby increasing the coverage of the product functionality.
Description: The following shear rate–dependent non-Newtonian models have been implemented in Abaqus/CFD:
Carreau-Yasuda viscous shear behavior
Cross viscous shear behavior
Ellis-Meter viscous shear behavior
Herschel-Bulkley viscous shear behavior
Powell-Eyring viscous shear behavior
Power law viscous shear behavior
Non-Newtonian viscous shear behavior in tabular form
