Abstract EN
Many electrorheological fluids (ERFs) as fluids with microstructure demonstrate viscoplastic behaviours.
Rheometric measurements indicate that some flows of these fluids may be modelled as the flows of a Herschel-Bulkley fluid.
In this paper, the flow of a Herschel-Bulkley ER fluid—with a fractional power-law exponent—in a narrow clearance between two fixed surfaces of revolution with common axis of symmetry is considered.
The flow is externally pressurized, and it is considered with inertia effect.
In order to solve this problem, the boundary layer equations are used.
The influence of inertia forces on the pressure distribution is examined by using the method of averaged inertia terms of the momentum equation.
Numerical examples of externally pressurized ERFs flows in the clearance between parallel disks and concentric spherical surfaces are presented.
