Dilatant Fluids Parameters
Dilatant Fluids Parameters
(OP)
Hi guys,
we are looking for some examples of dilatant fluids, for an application we're thinking to design (something similar to the Viscous coupling system).
In detail, we would like to know some typical flow consistency index (K) and flow behaviour index (n), according to the power law. I've tried to search it with Google, but at the time being without success.
Any indication will be usefull.
Thank you,
