Book Rheology and Fourier Transform Rheology on Water Based Systems

Download or read book Rheology and Fourier Transform Rheology on Water Based Systems written by Christopher Klein and published by Logos Verlag Berlin GmbH. This book was released on 2008 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The influence of shear fields on water-based systems was investigated within this thesis. The non-linear rheological behaviour of spherical and rod-like particles was examined with Fourier-Transform rheology under LAOS conditions. As a model system for spherical particles two different kinds of polystyrene disper- sions, with a solid content higher than 0.3 each, were synthesised within this work. Due to the differences in polydispersity and Debye-length, differences were also found in the rheology. In the FT-rheology both kinds of dispersions showed a similar rise in the intensities of the magnitudes of the odd higher harmonics, which were predicted by a model. The, in some cases additionally appearing second harmonics, were not predicted. A novel method to analyse the time domain signal was developed, that splits the time domain signal up in four characteristic functions. Those characteristic functions correspond to rheological phenomena. In some cases the intensities of the Fourier components can interfere negatively. FD-virus particles were used as a rod-like model system, which already shows a highly non-linear behaviour at concentrations below 1. % wt. Predictions for the dependence of the higher harmonics from the strain amplitude described the non-linear behaviour well at large, but no so good at small strain amplitudes. Ad- ditionally the trends of the rheological behaviour could be described by a theory for rod-like particles. An existing rheo-optical set-up was enhanced by reducing the background birefringence by a factor of 20 and by increasing the time resolution by a factor of 24. Additionally a combination of FT-rheology and rheo-optics was achieved. The influence of a constant shear field on the crystallisation process of zinc oxide in the presence of a polymer was examined. The crystallites showed a reduction in length by a factor of 2. The directed addition of polymers in combi- nation with a defined shear field can be an easy way for a defined change of the form of crystallites.

Book Fourier Transform Rheology on Dispersions Based on Newtonian Fluids

Download or read book Fourier Transform Rheology on Dispersions Based on Newtonian Fluids written by Kathrin Reinheimer and published by Logos Verlag Berlin GmbH. This book was released on 2012 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dispersionen sind ein heterogenes Gemisch aus zwei Stoffen, die sich nicht miteinander mischen. In der vorliegenden Arbeit werden sowohl Suspensionen bestehend aus einer festen dispersen Phase in einem flussigen Dispersionsmedium, Emulsionen bestehen aus zwei nicht mischbaren Flussigkeiten als auch Schaume, gebildet aus einer Gasphase dispergiert in einer Flussigkeit, untersucht. Als Hauptcharakterisierungsmethode dient die Fourier Transformations-Rheologie (FT-Rheologie), welches eine mechanische Charakterisierungsmethode im nichtlinearen Bereich darstellt.

Book Rheology and Quality Research of Cereal Based Food

Download or read book Rheology and Quality Research of Cereal Based Food written by Anabela Raymundo and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2021-06-21 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New trends in the cereal industry deal with the persistent need to develop new food goods tailored to consumer requirements and, in the near future, to the scarcity of food resources. Concepts of sustainable food production and food products as health and wellness promoters, the use of organic ingredients such as new ancient cereals to produce redesigned old staple foods, or the use of byproducts in designed food or feed formulations, in accordance with the bioeconomy and sustainability principles, are current topics that act as driving forces for innovation. The structure of cereal-based food products, especially in the case of gluten- or wheat-free foods, has proven to be a determinant for food appeal and strongly impacts consumer acceptance. It is well known that products with the same chemical composition can present very different structures, resulting in differently perceived texture and sensory properties and, therefore, rheology is an important tool for the food cereal industries. These are topics that act as driving forces for innovation and will be discussed in the present Special Issue.

Book Flow and Transport Properties of Unconventional Reservoirs 2018

Download or read book Flow and Transport Properties of Unconventional Reservoirs 2018 written by Jianchao Cai and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2019-07-23 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unconventional reservoirs are usually complex and highly heterogeneous, such as shale, coal, and tight sandstone reservoirs. The strong physical and chemical interactions between fluids and pore surfaces lead to the inapplicability of conventional approaches for characterizing fluid flow in these low-porosity and ultralow-permeability reservoir systems. Therefore, new theories and techniques are urgently needed to characterize petrophysical properties, fluid transport, and their relationships at multiple scales for improving production efficiency from unconventional reservoirs. This book presents fundamental innovations gathered from 21 recent works on novel applications of new techniques and theories in unconventional reservoirs, covering the fields of petrophysical characterization, hydraulic fracturing, fluid transport physics, enhanced oil recovery, and geothermal energy. Clearly, the research covered in this book is helpful to understand and master the latest techniques and theories for unconventional reservoirs, which have important practical significance for the economic and effective development of unconventional oil and gas resources.
