Abstract
The present work studies the flow of an elasto-viscoplastic fluid through a sudden four-to-one contraction. Mechanical modeling makes use of an Oldroyd-B viscoelastic equation modified to allow that either the elastic times or the polymeric viscosity are rheology-dependent. A three-field Galerkin least-squares method is used in terms of extra-stress, velocity, and pressure, to approximate the model. Results focus on the influence of the flow intensity on the yield surfaces, elasticity and relaxation time. Clear interlace is verified between these parameters and the position and shape of yield surfaces.
