We investigated the phase transformation of hot dense fluid hydrogen using static high-pressure laser-heating experiments in a laser-heated diamond anvil cell. The results show anomalies in the heating efficiency that are likely to be attributed to the phase transition from a diatomic to monoatomic fluid hydrogen (plasma phase transition) in the pressure range between 82 and 106 GPa. This study...

Materials at high pressures and temperatures are of great current interest for warm dense matter physics, planetary sciences, and inertial fusion energy research. Shock-compression equation-of-state data and optical reflectivities of the fluid dense oxide, Gd3Ga5O12 (GGG), were measured at extremely high pressures up to 2.6 TPa (26 Mbar) generated by high-power laser irradiation and magneticall...

Dense Medium Cyclone is a high capacity device that is widely used in coal preparation. It is simple in design but the swirling turbulent flow, the presence of medium and coal with different density and size fraction and the presence of the air-core make the flow pattern in DMCs complex. In this article the flow pattern simulation of DMC is performed with computational fluid dynamics and Fluent...

We present a generalized mode-coupling theory for a dense binary fluid mixture. The theory is used to calculate molecular-scale renormalizations to the stress-tensor autocorrelation function (STAF) and to the long-wavelength zero-frequency shear viscosity. As in the case of a dense simple fluid, we find that the STAF appears to decay as t over an intermediate range of time. The coefficient of t...

Gravitationally driven motion arising from a sustained constant source of dense fluid in a horizontal channel is investigated theoretically using shallow-layer models and direct numerical simulations of the Navier–Stokes equations, coupled to an advection–diffusion model of the density field. The influxed dense fluid forms a flowing layer underneath the less dense fluid, which initially filled ...

We present a hybrid atomistic–continuum computational framework for the treatment of dense fluid problems with emphasis on the coupling of molecular dynamics with continuum (finite element/spectral) methods for problems involving multi-fluid dynamics in the presence of multi-fluid interfaces. The technique is an extension of the single-fluid framework already presented by the author. The well-k...
