The Modified Enskog Equation for Mixtures
نویسنده
چکیده
synopsis In a previous paper it was shown that a modified form of the Enskog equation, applied to mixtures of hard spheres, should be considered as the correct extension of the usual Enskog equation to the case of mixtures. The main argument was that the modified Enskog equation leads to linear transport coefficients which are in complete agreement with the laws of irreversible thermodynamics. The existing extensions of the Enskog equation to the case of mixtures, on the other hand, yield results which do not satisfy the Onsager reciprocity relations. In this paper the detailed derivation of these results is presented, i.e., the normal solution of the modified Enskog equation for mixtures is obtained, the Navier-Stokes equations are derived and the explicit expressions for the linear transport coefficients which follow, are shown to satisfy the laws of irreversible thermodynamics.

Discrete velocity and lattice Boltzmann models for binary mixtures of nonideal fluids.
In this paper, a discrete velocity model and a lattice Boltzmann model are proposed for binary mixtures of nonideal fluids based on the Enskog theory. The velocity space of the Enskog equation for each component is first discretized by applying a Gaussian quadrature, resulting in a discrete velocity model that can be solved by suitable numerical schemes. A lattice Boltzmann model is then derive...

A new correlation function for the calculation of viscosity for five typical supercritical gases is presented using the rainwater-Friend and modified Enskog theory. It is shown that by using accurate value for the thermal pressure and co-volume in the modified Enskog theory, this correlation function is suitable for calculation of the viscosity of supercritical gases, without any density an...

متن کاملRheology of two- and three-dimensional granular mixtures under uniform shear flow: Enskog kinetic theory versus molecular dynamics simulations
The rheological properties for dilute and moderately dense granular binary mixtures of smooth, inelastic hard disks/spheres under uniform shear flow in steady state conditions are reported. The results are based on the Enskog kinetic theory, numerically solved by a dense gas extension of the Direct Simulation Monte Carlo method for dilute gases. These results are confronted to the ones also obt...
