Abstract

This paper addresses the problem of matching experimental findings with numerical prediction for the extreme experimental levels of pressure-drops observed in the 4:1 sharp-corner contraction flows, as reported by Nigen and Walters [“Viscoelastic contraction flows: Comparison of axisymmetric and pla...
