Experimental measurement of bulk viscosity of water based on stimulated Brillouin scattering

This paper presents a new method for measuring water bulk viscosity directly by using stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS). The relationships among shear viscosity, bulk viscosity, thermal capacity, and the line-width were deduced theoretically. The line-width and the bulk viscosity in water with different temperatures were investigated experimentally, and the error of experimental result was analyzed. The results obtained demonstrate that the proposed way is an accurate method for measuring bulk viscosity of water.     

Suitability of artificial bulk viscosity for large-eddy simulation of turbulent flows with shocks

The artificial bulk viscosity method to numerically capture shocks is investigated for large-eddy simulation (LES). Different variations of this method are tested on a turbulent flow over a cylinder at Reynolds number of 10,000 and free-stream Mach number of 0.85. The artificial bulk viscosity model by Cook and Cabot, which is parameterized by the strain rate magnitude, is found to provide unnecessary bulk viscosity in turbulent regions away from shocks. While developed turbulent structures are found unaffected, this extra bulk viscosity is shown to significantly damp the sound field. An alternative formulation of the model which is parameterized by the rate of dilatation is proposed. This formulation is shown to avoid the unnecessary bulk viscosity and enhance the sound-prediction capability of the model. It was found that standard LES combined with artificial bulk viscosity is a promising approach for simulation of turbulent flows with shocks. The formulation of the model on curvilinear coordinates is presented in the appendix.     

The effect of bulk viscosity on single bubble dynamics and sonoluminescence

In our previous paper, we derived a new single bubble model including the effect of bulk viscosity. To confront it to experiments, single bubble dynamics was measured here in 30% (v/v) glycerol-water mixture under different acoustic amplitudes and compared to models including or not the effect of bulk viscosity. The results showed that calculated bubble dynamics were not significantly affected by the bulk viscosity within the experimental conditions used in this study. However, there was a noticeable delay for the first rebound when bulk viscosity was considered. The corresponding sonoluminescence intensities were collected and compared with theoretical predictions. The results did not allow to discriminate between the two models (one includes the effect of bulk viscosity, the other does not), confirming the negligible effect of bulk viscosity in this condition (30% (v/v) glycerol-water mixture). Due to the instability of a single bubble in higher viscosity solutions, we could not implement experiments that can discriminate between the two models.

基于自发瑞利-布里渊散射的氮气体黏滞系数的测量

体黏滞系数是从微观角度认识气体分子黏滞性的重要参数,传统的兆赫兹声频范围的声波吸收方法无法直接应用于声波弛豫效应在千兆赫兹范围的高频领域,而瑞利-布里渊散射则能实现对声波弛豫效应在千兆赫兹的气体体黏滞系数的测量.本文测量了532 nm激光激发的常温下压强分别为1-9 bar的氮气的自发瑞利-布里渊散射光谱,利用已知温度和压强的理论模型对测量光谱进行了比较,获得了准确的散射角.利用该散射角并结合χ~2值最小原理反演得到不同压强(4—9 bar)下氮气的平均体黏滞系数为(1.46±0.14)×10~(-5)kg·m~(-1)·s~(-1),该结果与文献中利用自发瑞利-布里渊散射获得的结果和理论计算结果相近,但与相干瑞利-布里渊散射的测量结果相差明显.利用该平均体黏滞系数对氮气在不同压强下的温度进行了反演,得到各压强下的温度与实际温度的绝对误差小于2.50 K,反演温度的平均值与实际温度误差小于0.15 K,该结果证明了实验测量得到的氮气的体黏滞系数具有较高的准确性,同时也说明利用瑞利-布里渊散射反演气体参数具有较高的准确性和可靠性.     

Thermodynamics of the Bulk Viscous Cosmological Fluid in Presence of the Particle Creation Pressure

In the present work, we consider FRW metric and investigate some cosmological quantities in presence of bulk viscosity and particle creation pressure. The obtained results for a viscous cosmological fluid with particle creation show that the Hubble expansion parameter, energy density, bulk viscosity pressure, creation pressure and temperature depend on the particle creation rate and increase with increasing particle creation coefficient. It is found that the bulk viscosity and particle creation pressure seem to play important roles in the evolution of the early Universe.     

Bulk viscosity of hot dense Quark matter in the PNJL model

Starting from the Kubo formula and the QCD low energy theorem, we study the the bulk viscosity of hot dense quark matter in the PNJL model from the equation of state. We show that the bulk viscosity has a sharp peak near the chiral phase transition, and that the ratio of bulk viscosity over entropy rises dramatically in the vicinity of the phase transition. These results agree with those from the lattice and other model calculations. In addition, we show that the increase of chemical potential raises the bulk viscosity.     

Viscous universes

The effect of bulk viscosity on the evolution of the universe at large is investigated. It is demonstrated that bulk viscosity can lead to inflation-like solutions.     

Bulk viscosity,interaction and the viability of phantom solutions

We study the dynamics of a bulk viscosity model in the Eckart approach for a spatially flat Friedmann–Robertson–Walker (FRW) Universe. We have included radiation and dark energy, assumed as perfect fluids, and dark matter treated as an imperfect fluid having bulk viscosity. We also introduce an interaction term between the dark matter and dark energy components. Considering that the bulk viscosity is proportional to the dark matter energy density and imposing a complete cosmological dynamics, we find bounds on the bulk viscosity in order to reproduce a matter-dominated era (MDE). This constraint is independent of the interaction term. Some late time phantom solutions are mathematically possible. However, the constraint imposed by a MDE restricts the interaction parameter, in the phantom solutions, to a region consistent with a null value, eliminating the possibility of late time stable solutions with \(w<-1\). From the different cases that we study, the only possible scenario, with bulk viscosity and interaction term, belongs to the quintessence region. In the latter case, we find bounds on the interaction parameter compatible with latest observational data.     

Black Holes in Bulk Viscous Cosmology

We investigate the effects of the accretion of phantom energy with non-zero bulk viscosity onto a Schwarzschild black hole and show that black holes accreting viscous phantom energy will lose mass rapidly compared to the non-viscous case. When matter is incorporated along with the phantom energy, the black holes meet with the same fate as bulk viscous forces dominate matter accretion. If the phantom energy has large bulk viscosity, then the mass of the black hole will reduce faster than in the small viscosity case.     

Transport coefficients of a massive pion gas

We review our main results concerning the transport coefficients of a light meson gas,in particular we focus on the case of a massive pion gas.Leading order results according to the chiral power-counting are presented for the DC electrical conductivity,thermal conductivity,shear viscosity,and bulk viscosity.We also comment on the possible correlation between the bulk viscosity and the trace anomaly in QCD,as well as the relation between unitarity and a minimum of the quotient η/s near the phase transition.     

Warm-Polytropic Cosmology with and Without Bulk Viscosity

In this paper we consider warm-polytropic cosmology including bulk viscosity and study cosmological parameters. We can obtain effect of viscosity on the important cosmological parameters such as Hubble expansion, deceleration and scale factor parameters. We compare our results with observational data and fix our solution. We find that the bulk viscosity increases both energy density and Hubble expansion parameter.     

Anisotropic cosmological models with bulk viscosity and particle creation in Saez–Ballester theory of gravitation

The paper deals with the study of particle creation and bulk viscosity in the evolution of spatially homogeneous and anisotropic Bianchi type-V cosmological models in the framework of Saez–Ballester theory of gravitation. Particle creation and bulk viscosity are considered as separate irreversible processes. The energy–momentum tensor is modified to accommodate the viscous pressure and creation pressure which is associated with the creation of matter out of gravitational field. A special law of variation of Hubble parameter is applied to obtain exact solutions of field equations in two types of cosmologies, one with power-law expansion and the other with exponential expansion. Cosmological model with power-law expansion has a Big-Bang singularity at time t = 0, whereas the model with exponential expansion has no finite singularity. We study bulk viscosity and particle creation in each model in four different cases. The bulk viscosity coefficient is obtained for full causal, Eckart’s and truncated theories. All physical parameters are calculated and thoroughly discussed in both models.     

Inflation driven by energy and curvature dependent bulk viscosity

We study the relative rates of expansion in cosmologies admitting curvature dependent and energy dependent bulk viscosity. It is conjectured that curvature dependant bulk viscosity may be a phenomenological way of representing gravitational vacuum polarization around the time of the Planck era.     

The u + d ↔ u + s reaction rate and bulk viscosity of strange matter

The influence of the strong interactions in strange matter on its nonleptonic reaction rate and bulk viscosity is studied. We find the rate is strongly suppressed by these interactions. The bulk viscosity is also influenced by them. At low temperatures, the viscosity is strongly suppressed; but at high temperatures, it is slightly enhanced. The astrophysical implications of these results are also discussed.

Assessment of localized artificial diffusivity scheme for large-eddy simulation of compressible turbulent flows

The localized artificial diffusivity method is investigated in the context of large-eddy simulation of compressible turbulent flows. The performance of different artificial bulk viscosity models are evaluated through detailed results from the evolution of decaying compressible isotropic turbulence with eddy shocklets and supersonic turbulent boundary layer. Effects of subgrid-scale (SGS) models and implicit time-integration scheme/time-step size are also investigated within the framework of the numerical scheme used. The use of a shock sensor along with artificial bulk viscosity significantly improves the scheme for simulating turbulent flows involving shocks while retaining the shock-capturing capability. The proposed combination of Ducros-type sensor with a negative dilatation sensor removes unnecessary bulk viscosity within expansion and weakly compressible turbulence regions without shocks and allows it to localize near the shocks. It also eliminates the need for a wall-damping function for the bulk viscosity while simulating wall-bounded turbulent flows. For the numerical schemes used, better results are obtained without adding an explicit SGS model than with SGS model at moderate Reynolds number. Inclusion of a SGS model in addition to the low-pass filtering and artificial bulk viscosity results in additional damping of the resolved turbulence. However, investigations at higher Reynolds numbers suggest the need for an explicit SGS model. The flow statistics obtained using the second-order implicit time-integration scheme with three sub-iterations closely agrees with the explicit scheme if the maximum Courant–Friedrichs–Lewy is kept near unity.     

Friedmann Cosmology with Bulk Viscosity: A Concrete Model for Dark Energy

The universe content is considered as a non-perfect fluid with bulk viscosity and can be described by a general equation of state (endowed some deviation from the conventionally assumed cosmic perfect fluid model). An explicitly bulk viscosity dark energy model is proposed to confront consistently with the current observationaldata sets by statistical analysis and is shown consistent with (not deviated away much from) the concordant Λ Cold Dark Matter (CDM) model by comparing the decelerating parameter. Also we compare our relatively simple viscosity dark energy model with a more complicated one by contrast with the concordant ΛCDM modeland find our model improves for the viscosity dark energy model building. Finally we discuss the perspectives of dark energy probes for the coming years with observations.     

Singularities and Entropy in Bulk Viscosity Dark Energy Model

In this paper bulk viscosity is introduced to describe the effects of cosmic non-perfect fluid on the cosmos evolution and to build the unified dark energy (DE) with (dark) matter models. Also we derive a general relation between the bulk viscosity form and Hubble parameter that can provide a procedure for the viscosity DE model building. Especially, a redshift dependent viscosity parameterζ∝λ₀ +λ₁(1+z)ⁿ proposed in the previous work [X.H. Meng and X. Dou, Commun. Theor. Phys. 52 (2009) 377] is investigated extensively in this present work. Further more we use the recently released supernova dataset
(the Constitution dataset) to constrain the model parameters. In order to differentiate the proposed concrete dark energy models from the well known $\Lambda$CDM model, statefinder diagnostic method is applied to this bulk viscosity model, as a complementary to the Om parameter diagnostic and the deceleration parameter analysis performed by us before. The DE model evolution behavior and tendency are shown in the plane of the statefinder diagnostic parameter pair {r,s} as axes where the fixed point represents theΛCDM model. The possible singularity property in this bulk viscosity
cosmology is also discussed to which we can conclude that in the different parameter regions chosen properly, this concrete viscosity DE model can have various late evolution behaviors and the late time singularity could be avoided. We also calculate the cosmic entropy in the bulk viscosity dark energy frame, and find that the total entropy in the viscosity DE model increases monotonously with respect to the scale factor evolution, thus this monotonous
increasing property can indicate an arrow of time in the universe evolution, though the quantum version of the arrow of time is still very puzzling.
