Effects of shearing flow with inertia on monolayer mesoscale structure.

چکیده
In an experimental flow system capable of imparting a well-controlled shear-rate distribution with inertia to a monolayer consisting of coexisting phases, we have studied the resulting phase morphology and domain fragmentation. These evolve on distinct time scales: the viscous time associated with the viscosity in the bulk and the Marangoni stress and the fragmentation/relaxation time associated with the phase morphology. A relationship between the microstructure (line tension) and macroflow (shear rate) determining the meso length scale of the coexisting phase domains has been deduced from dimensional analysis and was found to correlate well with the quantitative experimental observations.

Transverse vibration and instability of fluid conveying triple-walled carbon nanotubes based on strain-inertia gradient theory
In this paper, the transverse vibration of a triple-walled carbon nanotube (TWCNT) conveying fluid flow is studied based on the strain/inertia gradient theory with van der Waals interaction taken into consideration. The nanotube is modelled using Euler-Bernoulli beam model and the Galerkin’s method is employed to obtain the CNT complex valued Eigen-frequencies. The effects of the fluid flow tho...
متن کاملForchheimer Law in Computational and Experimental Studies of Flow through Porous Media at Porescale and Mesoscale
We propose an algorithm for upscaling of flow with inertia within a multiscale framework ranging from porescale (microscale) to lab scale (mesoscale). In particular, we solve Navier-Stokes equations over complex pore geometries and average their solutions to get flow parameters at mesoscale. For periodic geometries, this is exactly the idea of homogenization. As concerns averaging, we follow th...
متن کاملNon-newtonian behavior of an insoluble monolayer: effects of inertia.
Interfacial velocity measurements were performed in an optical annular channel, consisting of stationary inner and outer cylinders, a floor rotating at a constant rate, and a flat free surface on which an insoluble monolayer was initially spread. Measurements for essentially inviscid monolayers and some viscous monolayers on water show good agreement with numerical predictions for a Newtonian i...
متن کاملComputational Upscaling of Inertia Effects from Porescale to Mesoscale
We propose algorithms for computational upscaling of flow from porescale (microscale) to lab scale (mesoscale). In particular, we solve Navier-Stokes equations in complex pore geometries and average their solutions to derive properties of flow relevant at lab scale such as permeability and inertia coefficients. We discuss two variants of traditional discretizations: a simple algorithm which wor...
متن کاملFlow-induced patterning of Langmuir monolayers.
Insoluble monolayers on water have been patterned at the macroscopic scale (i.e., at the centimeter scale of the flow apparatus) as well as the mesoscopic scale (i.e., down to the micron scale resolvable via optical microscopy). The macroscopic patterning at the air/water interface results from a hydrodynamic instability leading to a steadily precessing flow pattern. The velocity field is measu...
