A common challenge in hydrogel-based delivery systems is the premature release of low molecular weight encapsulates through diffusion or swelling and reduced cell viability caused by pH gastric conditions. second biopolymer, such as chitosan, can be incorporated to overcome this. Chitosan usually associated with colonic drug systems. We intended formulate chitosan-coated pectin beads for use delaying encapsulate under conditions but allowing disintegration intestinal The latter utmost...
The variation of the pressure drop measured as a function fluid velocity through packed bed spheres is presented and discussed in range particle Reynolds number 30–1500. Based on previous studies, observed limit validity so-called Forchheimer law may be attributed to concomitant effects finite character tested transition flow regime which marking beginning fully developed turbulent regime. Forchheimer-type was formerly noticed by several authors.
The selection of a geotextile to prevent the soil suffusion in civil engineering work is classical problem. internal erosion key factor as migration fine particles damages integrity structure. This deals with problem using draining system consisting layer and sheet order suffusion. It proposes methodology which allows ordering performance nonwoven geotextiles. A range experimental approaches were implemented including seepage flow tests under controlled rates. detailed analysis data shows...
In this paper, the hydrodynamics in FM01-LC electrolyzer is studied by flow visualization and residence time distribution (RTD). Divided undivided modes are direct visualization, with two injection points. The use of foams instead turbulence promoters as well that electrodes without tested. membrane-partitioned-mode configurations, radial axial dispersions observed. Dispersion drastically extended case empty channel flow. A high-flow asymmetry generally induced distributors. RTD implemented...
The dynamics of a single Newtonian drop in turbulent microscopic flow are strongly influenced by the shear thinning behavior continuous phase. central aim this study is to map and describe various dynamic modes terms both rheology phase Reynolds number. In presence drops elongated form long filaments, stronger matrix, longer their characteristic break time is. Single found be dominated local extension. Our findings could useful for addressing emulsification non-Newtonian fluids.
Abstract The viscosities of solutions formulated with xanthan gum and whey protein isolates are experimentally characterized modeled over a wide range shear rates [10 −3 to 10 5 s −1 ]. As shown by numerous studies [1, 2], the generation vortices in cone-plate geometry is making viscosity measurements beyond certain rate unreliable. In present work, an innovative technique, based on microfluidics developed company Formulaction, has been employed extend high rates, flow curve obtained...
