Numerical Prediction for Thermal Oldroyd-B and Phan-Thien Fluids: Axisymmetric Contraction Flows
This article aims to study the numerical predictions of viscoelastic fluid behavior during flow in a 4:1:4 acute-angled contraction-expansion geometry under thermal boundary conditions (heating). The work studies non-Newtonian fluid flow response, in which viscoelasticity is introduced through two models, the consta...
