Non-linear Hydrodynamic Fluctuations around Equilibrium
نویسنده
چکیده
We formulate a scheme describing the fluctuations in a system obeying the non-linear hydrodynamic equations. The random fluxes are assumed to be Gaussian processes with white noise. It is shown that the usual expressions for the systematic parts of the dissipative fluxes are consistent with this assumption, provided that the Onsager coefficients are constants. The linear response of the system to a small external force field is studied and the relevant fluctuation-dissipation theorems are derived.

Transport Far From Equilibrium — Uniform Shear Flow
The BGK model kinetic equation is applied to spatially inhomogeneous states near steady uniform shear flow. The shear rate of the reference steady state can be large so the states considered include those very far from equilibrium. The single particle distribution function is calculated exactly to first order in the deviations of the hydrodynamic field gradients from their values in the referen...
متن کاملNon-linear Hydrodynamic J?luctuation Theory for a Charged Two Component Fluid in Equilibrium
A scheme introduced recently for the description of non-linear hydrodynamic fluctuations of a one-component fluid is extended to the case of a two-component charged fluid. The random fluxes which are introduced are assumed to be Gaussian processes with white noise. It is found that the usual expressions for the systematic parts of the dissipative fluxes are only consistent with this assumption,...
متن کاملThermal Fluctuations in Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamics
Thermal fluctuations in fluids and fluid mixtures in stationary nonequilibrium states are spatially long ranged. This long-ranged nature of the non-equilibrium fluctuations is caused by a coupling between hydrodynamic modes through the non-equilibrium fluxes or gradients. The phenomena are discussed with some illustrative examples in fluids and fluid mixtures.
متن کاملFluctuations and response in a non-equilibrium micron-sized system
The linear response of non-equilibrium systems with Markovian dynamics satisfies a generalized fluctuation-dissipation relation derived from time symmetry and antisymmetry properties of the fluctuations. The relation involves the sum of two correlation functions of the observable of interest: one with the entropy excess and the second with the excess of dynamical activity with respect to the un...
متن کاملConcentration fluctuations in non-isothermal reaction-diffusion systems. II. The nonlinear case.
In this paper, we consider a simple reaction-diffusion system, namely, a binary fluid mixture with an association-dissociation reaction between two species. We study fluctuations at hydrodynamic spatiotemporal scales when this mixture is driven out of equilibrium by the presence of a temperature gradient, while still being far away from any chemical instability. This study extends the analysis ...
