Researchers have shown that the injection of a thin or low-viscosity fluid into a much more viscous fluid (think of water spurting into molasses) will cause the two fluids to mix very quickly via a ...

Fluid mixing is an important part of several industrial processes and chemical reactions. However, the process often relies on trial-and-error-based experiments instead of mathematical optimization.

A novel measurement technique has been developed to visualize the fluid flow and distribution within two droplets levitated and coalesced in space using fluorescence-emitting particles. This technique ...

Ditch Witch announces the release of a new fluid mixing system, the Ditch Witch FM25. The new FM25 is a reliable, low-maintenance system for mixing the drilling fluid in horizontal directional ...

Pouring cream into coffee creates a show of eddies that rivals Jupiter's roiling storms. But one clank of the spoon collapses all that black and tan chaos into a smooth, uniform brown. It turns out ...

It was a good flight back in 2007: an unmanned Foton-M3 spacecraft flew around Earth for 12 days with 43 scientific and technological experiments on board. Some of the results were in hand right after ...

David Wampler understands why some contractors think drilling fluid products seem a bit like snake oil. "It looks like dirt in a sack, and you have this sales guy saying it's good for you," says ...

Refilling windshield washer fluid is one of those basic-but-critical maintenance jobs that directly affects your safety every time you drive. Clear visibility matters, yet plenty of drivers still ...

Getting two fluids to mix in small or confined spaces is a big problem in many industries where, for instance, the introduction of one fluid can help extract another — like water pumped underground ...

Mixing of fluids is a critical component in many industrial and chemical processes. Pharmaceutical mixing and chemical reactions, for instance, may require homogeneous fluid mixing. Achieving this ...
