The results showed that all these solutions possessed pseudo-plastic solution properties. There are opposite effects of SPI and PU in the PAN/DMSO solution. Their apparent viscosity, degree of non-Newtonian fluid, and extent of structuralization of blend system increase with the addition of SPI, whereas, all of these decrease with the addition of PU. Moreover, the theological properties of PAN/DMSO solution were affected when SPI and PU were added equally, and SPI presented more effect when the proportion of ingredient was less, and PU presented more effect when the proportion of ingredient was more.展开更多

By considering rheological characteristics of fluid, this approach was able to accurately capture the deformation of bubble interface, and validated by comparing with the experimental results. The rising of bubble pairs with different configurations, including horizontal alignment and oblique alignment, was simulated by the method. The influences of the bubble initial distance and the bubble alignment were studied by analyzing the bubble deformation, rising paths and flow fields surrounding bubbles. The results indicate that within certam mltlal bubble spacing of S = 3.3 （S＊ = SI/D, SI initial distance between bubbles, and D bubble diameter）, the dynamic interaction between two bub- bles aligned horizontally shows repulsive effect that decreases with the increase of initial bubble spacing, but weakens to certain degree by the shear-thinning properties of fluid. However, the interaction between two bubbles aligned obliquely presents a repulsive effect for the small angle involved but an attractive impact for the large one, which is vet strengthened by the rheological characteristics of fluid.展开更多
