Numerous examples of polymer flow models based on generalized Newtonian behaviour are found in non-Newtonian fluid mechanics literature. Using experimental evidence the time-independent generalized Newtonian fluids are divided into three groups. These are Bingham plastics, pseudoplastic fluids and dilatant fluids. 

Bingham plastics are fluids which remain rigid under the application of shear stresses less than a yield stress, Ty, but flow like a. simple Newtonian fluid once the applied shear exceeds this value. Different constitutive models representing this type of fluids were developed by Herschel and Bulkley (1926), Oldroyd (1947) and Casson (1959).

The apparent viscosity, defined as du/dj) drops with increased rate of strain. Dilatant fluids foUow a constitutive relation similar to that for pseudoplastics except that the viscosities increase with increased rate of strain, ie, n > 1 in equation 22. Dilatancy is observed in highly concentrated suspensions of very small particles such as titanium oxide in a sucrose solution. Bingham fluids display a linear stress—strain curve similar to Newtonian fluids, but have a nonzero intercept termed the yield stress (eq. 23) ... 

One simple rheological model that is often used to describe the behavior of foams is that of a Bingham plastic. This appHes for flows over length scales sufficiently large that the foam can be reasonably considered as a continuous medium. The Bingham plastic model combines the properties of a yield stress like that of a soHd with the viscous flow of a Hquid. In simple Newtonian fluids, the shear stress T is proportional to the strain rate y, with the constant of proportionaHty being the fluid viscosity. In Bingham plastics, by contrast, the relation between stress and strain rate is r = where is... 

Intrusive Deposits. Deposits included in the intmsive deposit type are those associated with intmsive or anatectic rocks of different chemical composition, eg, alaskite, granite, monzonite, peralkaline syenite, carbonatite, and pegmatite. Examples include the uranium occurrences in the porphyry copper deposits such as Bingham Canyon and Twin Butte in the United States, the Rossing Deposit in Namibia, and Ilimaussaq deposit in Greenland, Palabora in South Africa, and the deposits in the Bancroft area, Canada (15). 

Of the models Hsted in Table 1, the Newtonian is the simplest. It fits water, solvents, and many polymer solutions over a wide strain rate range. The plastic or Bingham body model predicts constant plastic viscosity above a yield stress. This model works for a number of dispersions, including some pigment pastes. Yield stress, Tq, and plastic (Bingham) viscosity, = (t — Tq )/7, may be determined from the intercept and the slope beyond the intercept, respectively, of a shear stress vs shear rate plot. 

The power law model can be extended by including the yield value r — Tq = / 7 , which is called the Herschel-BulMey model, or by adding the Newtonian limiting viscosity,. The latter is done in the Sisko model, 77 +. These two models, along with the Newtonian, Bingham, and Casson... 

Many investigators beheve that the Bingham model accounts best for observations of electrorheological behavior (116,118), but other models have also been proposed (116,119). There is considerable evidence that ER materials behave as linear viscoelastic fluids while under the influence of electric field (120) thus it appears that these materials maybe thought of as elastic Bingham fluids.

A wide variety of nonnewtonian fluids are encountered industrially. They may exhibit Bingham-plastic, pseudoplastic, or dilatant behavior and may or may not be thixotropic. For design of equipment to handle or process nonnewtonian fluids, the properties must usually be measured experimentally, since no generahzed relationships exist to pi e-dicl the properties or behavior of the fluids. Details of handling nonnewtonian fluids are described completely by Skelland (Non-Newtonian Flow and Heat Transfer, Wiley, New York, 1967). The generalized shear-stress rate-of-strain relationship for nonnewtonian fluids is given as... 

Non-Newtonian Flow For isothermal laminar flow of time-independent non-Newtonian hquids, integration of the Cauchy momentum equations yields the fully developed velocity profile and flow rate-pressure drop relations. For the Bingham plastic flmd described by Eq. (6-3), in a pipe of diameter D and a pressure drop per unit length AP/L, the flow rate is given by... 

The transition to turbulent flow begins at Re R in the range of 2,000 to 2,500 (Metzuer and Reed, AIChE J., 1, 434 [1955]). For Bingham plastic materials, K and n must be evaluated for the condition in question in order to determine Re R and establish whether the flow is laminar. An alternative method for Bingham plastics is by Hanks (Hanks, AIChE J., 9, 306 [1963] 14, 691 [1968] Hanks and Pratt, Soc. Petrol. Engrs. J., 7, 342 [1967] and Govier and Aziz, pp. 213-215). The transition from laminar to turbulent flow is influenced by viscoelastic properties (Metzuer and Park, J. Fluid Mech., 20, 291 [1964]) with the critical value of Re R increased to beyond 10,000 for some materials.
