    Densities and viscosities of poly(ethylene glycol) 4000 + diammonium hydrogen phosphate + water systems
    (2009) Iyyaswami, I.; Murugesan, S.; Amaresh, S.P.; Govindarajan, R.; Murugesan, T.
    The densities and viscosities of binary and ternary solutions of the poly(ethylene glycol) 4000 (PEG4000) + diammonium hydrogen phosphate + water system were determined at different temperatures [(298.15, 303.15, 308.15, 313.15, and 318.15) K]. The measured density and viscosity data of all the binary and ternary systems were fitted to available empirical correlations, for the corresponding temperatures. The density data show a linear variation with mass fraction of the polymer for all temperatures. The viscosity data of all the solutions were correlated as a function of their mass fraction, using a nonlinear equation, for the five different temperatures covered in the present work. Densities and viscosities of PEG4000 - diammonium hydrogen phosphate two-phase systems have been measured at (298.15, 303.15, 308.15, 313.15, and 318.15) K. The tie line lengths (TLL) of the aqueous two-phase systems have also been estimated, and the effect of the physical properties on the TLL is also reported. © 2009 American Chemical Society.

    Liquid-liquid equilibrium of poly(ethylene glycol) 6000 + triammonium citrate + water systems at different temperatures
    (2009) Iyyaswami, I.; Murugesan, S.; Govindarajan, R.; Amaresh, S.P.; Murugesan, T.
    Liquid - liquid equilibrium for an aqueous two-phase system containing poly(ethylene glycol) 6000 + triammonium citrate + water was studied at five different temperatures, (25, 30, 35, 40, and 45) °C. The binodal curve was fitted to an empirical equation relating the concentrations of PEG 6000 and triammonium citrate, and the coefficients were estimated for the respective temperatures. The effective excluded volume values were obtained from the binodal data. Tie line compositions were estimated and correlated using Othmer - Tobias and Bancroft equations, and the parameters are reported. © 2009 American Chemical Society.

    Densities and viscosities of polyethylene glycol 6000 + triammonium citrate + water systems
    (2009) Iyyaswami, I.; Govindarajan, R.; Amaresh, S.P.; Murugesan, T.
    The densities and viscosities of binary and ternary solutions of the aqueous two-phase systems created by the polyethylene glycol 6000 + triammonium citrate + water system were measured at different temperatures [(25, 30, 35, 40, and 45) °C] and correlated with empirical equations. The density data were compared with those available in the literature. The density data show a linear variation with the mass fraction of the polymer for all temperatures. The density and viscosity of the top and bottom phases were also measured and reported. © 2009 American Chemical Society.

    The effect of initial momentum flux on the circular hydraulic jump
    (American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) infocentral@asme.org, 2015) Vishwanath, K.P.; Dasgupta, R.; Govindarajan, R.; Sreenivas, K.R.
    Earlier studies on the circular hydraulic jump have shown that the radial position of the hydraulic jump depends on the flow rate, gravity, and fluid viscosity. In this study, results from numerical simulations and experiments on circular hydraulic jumps are presented and through analysis, it is shown that the momentum flux is an additional controlling parameter in determining the jump location. Apart from the jump location, the variation of the film thickness with flow parameters is also obtained from experiments and numerical simulations. By including the dependence of the momentum flux and dissipation in the film along with other controlling parameters, the data on jump radius obtained from experiments and simulation (including the present study) covering a wide range of parameters reported in the literature can be collapsed on to a single curve. © © 2015 by ASME.
