Characteristics and origins of viscoelastic turbulence in a 3-stream contraction-expansion micro-channel
At low Reynolds number (Re < 1), the flow of viscous liquids e.g. water, is laminar. An aqueous solution e.g. water becomes viscoelastic when a small amount of polymer additives (< 1 wt%) is added to it; its flow behavior can become drastically different and turbulent i.e. viscoelastic turbule...
