Unpredictable Dynamics of Polymeric Reacting Flow by Comparison between Pre- and Post-Reaction Fluid Properties: Hydrodynamics Involving Molecular Diagnosis via ATR-FTIR Spectroscopy.

In reacting flows, changes in fluid properties induced by the chemical reaction can alter the flow dynamics. Generally, these changes in fluid properties are evaluated by comparison between their pre- and post-reaction properties. If a fluid property such as viscosity decreases between pre- and post-reaction, we expect a decrease in viscosity to occur in the reacting flow.
