06007 Laminar Mixing and Mixing Fundamentals
OverviewBlending and mixing phenomena in high-viscosity Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids is of significant industrial interest. Both fundamental and applied contributions were solicited on the fluid dynamic behavior of liquids in laminar flow, mixing equipment for laminar flow applications, and processes utilizing high-viscosity materials. In addition, contributions were also invited on other more fundamental aspects of mixing not limited to laminar flow.
