Figure 1.5 Tensile viscosity and shear rate viscosity of a polymer melt as a function of strain rate [21 ]<br />

13.1 Apparent Shear Rate<br />

The apparent shear rate for a melt flowing through a capillary is defined as<br />

where Q is the volume flow rate per second and £ is the radius of the capillary.<br />

1.3.2 Entrance Loss<br />

(1.19)<br />

Another rheological quantity of practical importance is the entrance losspc, representing<br />

the loss of energy of flow at the entrance to a round nozzle. This is empirically correlated<br />

by the relation [2]<br />
