The flow of polystyrene through rectangular channels

For φ A / φ 0 ratios up to 10, the flow of polystyrene in rectangular channels may be predicted by the expression Q = C 1PD 4 η o l 1 + (C 2Kt w) + (C 2Kt) 2 2! + (C 2Kt w) 3 3! + (C 2Kt w) 4 4! where C 1 and C 2 are dimensionless parameters depending upon the ratio of the sides of the channel.

Description
Summary:For φ A / φ 0 ratios up to 10, the flow of polystyrene in rectangular channels may be predicted by the expression Q = C 1PD 4 η o l 1 + (C 2Kt w) + (C 2Kt) 2 2! + (C 2Kt w) 3 3! + (C 2Kt w) 4 4! where C 1 and C 2 are dimensionless parameters depending upon the ratio of the sides of the channel. One approximate equation for calculating the constant C 1 is given, and experimental values of both constants have been determined experimentally. This expression can be used to predict the rate of flow of polystyrene in rectangular channels to within ±10% if the ratio of the short side to length is less than 0.05.
