Study Rheological Behavior of Polymer Solution in Different-Medium-Injection-Tools
Round 1
Reviewer 1 Report
The paper is interesting and of good quality, however this paper is not suitable for a this journal. The content of the manuscript is good for a journal of Chemical Engineering. The modelling is interesting but is not necessaryly related to polymers. In the application studied the polymers paly the role of thickeners, and the same goud be valid if other components were used, e.g. micro- or nanosuspensions.
I recommend to submit the manuscript to a journal more focused on oil engineering.

Reviewer 2 Report
The manuscript entitled "Study Rheological Behavior of Polymer Solution in Different-medium-injection-tools" reports about an interesting study regarding the prevision of the polymer injection parameters in oilfield. in my opinion, the manuscript deserves to be published in Polymers.
I suggest to the authors to modify the Abstract, in order to enhance its readability, and to enriche the reference list with more recent papers.

Reviewer 3 Report
The manuscript entitled: "Study Rheological Behavior of Polymer Solution in Different-medium-injection-tools" is a work dealing with the problem of polymer solution flow during extrusion with a variety of injection tools.
The work has a solid theoretical background which is general and tries to cover a variety of aspects. I have nothing against the scientific results besides this work; I am just skeptical over the actual application of all the mentioned results.
Can the authors explain, why this method will be helpful to an experimentalist who will try to extrude of a specific polymer (e.g., a high molecular weight polyolefin with the problem of solubility at low temperatures)?
Is it possible to specify what will happen to the model for different polymer types?
