Abstract

Bioprocessing steps of parentals traditionally involve large velocity gradients. These gradients result in high shear stresses, generally believed to affect product stability. Precise modelling of unit operations is therefore necessary to quantify the sources of shear. Here, CFD analysis was applied to flow through tubing and fittings under laminar and turbulent conditions; equations were proposed to assess the average shear experienced by the product.
