摘要
Experiments were performed to investigate the phenomenon of wall slip during the flow of aqueous solutions of carbopol through a parallel plate channel. The Reynolds number is low for all cases investigated, to ensure negligible development length. In the experiments, the pressure drop is measured for different flow rate values, and the results are presented in the form of curves of dimensionless average velocity versus dimensionless wall shear stress. We also performed experiments with glycerol, and the results agreed with the analytical solution available in the literature. Moreover, this agreement ensures the absence of wall slip for this Newtonian case. Comparisons between the experimental and numerical results show that (apparent) wall slip occurs when the wall shear stress is below a threshold stress of a few times the yield stress. Above this threshold, the numerical and experimental curves tend to merge.
