Free convection flow of an elastico-viscous liquid through a vertical circular cylinder

The problem of free convection flow of an elastico-viscous liquid through a vertical circular cylinder at constant temperature including the effects of frictional heating and distributed heat sources or sinks has been considered. The equations of motion and energy have been solved by an iteration technique. The effects of the elasticity of the liquid, buoyancy forces and heat sources or sinks on the velocity and temperature fields, skin-friction and Nusselt number have been discussed.     

Stability of the flow of an elastico-viscous fluid

Summary The eigenvalues of the generalized Orr-Sommerfeld equation for an elasticoviscous fluid are found for a constant velocity profile. The result shows that the effect of elasticity is to stabilize the flow.It is also shown that the second-order equation of state is not a suitable model for a fluid when the stability of that fluid is to be analysed.

Normal stress effects in oscillatory motion of some idealized elastico-viscous fluids

Zusammenfassung Es wird eine viskoelastische Flüssigkeit mit dem Stoffgesetz (1), (2) betrachtet. Wenn eine solche Flüssigkeit unter dem Einfluss eines periodischen Druckgefälles in einem zylindrischen Rohr von beliebigem Querschnitt fliesst, so gibt es im allgemeinen keine Lösung der Bewegungsleichungen, die eine periodische geradlinige Strömung darstellt und gleichzeitig mit konservativen Massenkräften verträglich ist. Auch eine periodische Couette-Strömung zwischen periodisch schwingenden Zylinder ist im allgemeinen nicht möglich.     

Relationship between the normal and shear stresses in elastico-viscous liquid flow

A class of elastico-viscous liquids is considered. On the basis of an analysis of the experimental data of a considerable number of authors it is shown that the Weissenberg relation between the shear stresses and the first difference of the normal stresses is limited and a more general expression of the exponential type is proposed.Institute of Thermophysics, Siberian Division, Academy of Sciences of the USSR, Novosibirsk.

Some exact solutions of an elastico-viscous fluid

The exact solutions for the unsteady flow of an elastico-viscous fluid caused by general periodic oscillations are obtained. Further, the plate is assumed to be rigid as well as porous executing periodic rotary oscillations. The velocity field and shear stress are established.     

The relative permeabilities of an idealized model of two-phase flow in porous media

A simplified model is presented for two-phase flow in a porous medium consisting of circular capillary tubes. The equation of motion (Navier-Stokes equation) is solved for the system giving the velocity distributions for the wetting and nonwetting phases. The velocity distributions are used to derive expressions for the relative permeabilities to the wetting and nonwetting phases. It was found that the relative permeability to the nonwetting phase at a given saturation is a function of the viscosity ratio of the two phases while the relative permeability to the wetting phase is independent of the viscosity ratio. The validity of these findings for more complicated porous systems is discussed.     

Forced oscillations in a rotating liquid (I)

Zusammenfassung Der vorliegenden Analyse liegen die linearisierten Gleichungen für die achsensymmetrischen Störungen einer gleichförmig rotierenden Flüssigkeit zugrunde. Dabei wird aber keine Annahme hinsichtlich einer Zeitabhängigkeit der erzwungenen Bewegungen gemacht und die Entwicklung der Störungen vom Beginn der erzwungenen Bewegung an studiert. Ungeachtet der sich zeigenden analytischen Schwierigkeiten können über die allgemeinen Störbewegungen Aussagen gemacht werden.Für die relativ schnellen harmonischen Schwingungen (mit einer Störfrequenz grösser als die doppelte Rotationsfrequenz) findet man, nachdem die Einwirkung zeitlich genügend dauerte, dass die Bewegung der Flüssigkeit und jene des erzwungenen Mechanismus — wie in den früheren Arbeiten angenommen — überall phasengleich ist. Demgegenüber wird für Schwingungen mit kleinerer Relativfrequenz ein System fortschreitender Wellen vorausgesagt. Spezielle Aufmerksamkeit wird hier dem früheren Falle geschenkt; mit Hilfe einer Ähnlichkeitsbetrachtung kann die Analyse einer breiten Klasse der durch kleine harmonische Schwingungen erregten Bewegungen auf ein Problem der Potentialtheorie reduziert werden. Als Beispiele werden die axial schwingende und die radial pulsierende Kugel kurz erörtert.     

Computational treatment of free convection effect on flow of elastico-viscous fluid past an accelerated plate with constant heat flux

Effect of free convection on the visco-elastic fluid (Walter - B’ type) flow past an infinite vertical plate accelerating in its own plane with constant heat flux is examined analytically. It is found that for given values of Grashof number, Prandtl number and Newtonian parameter; flow velocity at any point increases with the increase in time and non-Newtonian parameter, however, it decreases with both, the heating and cooling of the plate.

Inlet length by laminar flow of elastico-viscous liquids through straight channel and circular tube

The inlet lengths in a straight channel and a circular tube by the laminar flow of an elastico-viscous liquid have been determined in this paper. Expressions for the inlet lengths have been obtained by the kinetic energy end correction method. For a given pressure drop, the elasticity of the liquid increases the inlet length only if the liquid possesses cross-viscosity. But cross-viscosity which decreases the inlet length has an independent effect on it.     

Helical flow arising from the yielded annular flow of a Bingham fluid

The Bingham fluid model was developed to represent viscoplastic materials that change from rigid bodies at low stress to viscous fluids at high stress – a process termed yielding. Such a fluid model is used in the modeling of slurries, which occur frequently in food processing and other engineering applications.     

Helical flow of an Oldroyd-B fluid due to a circular cylinder subject to time-dependent shear stresses

Exact solutions corresponding to the unsteady helical flow of an Oldroyd-B fluid due to an infinite circular cylinder subject to torsional and longitudinal time-dependent shear stresses are established using Hankel transforms. These solutions, presented under series form in terms of Bessel functions J ₀(·), J ₁(·) and J ₂(·), can be easily specialized to give the similar solutions for Maxwell, Second grade and Newtonian fluids performing the same motion. Some characteristics of the motion, as well as the influence of pertinent parameters on the velocity profiles, are underlined by graphical illustrations.

Method of determining the volume and shear characteristics of elastico-viscous hereditary media from uniaxial-tension (compression) experiments

A method is proposed for determining the elastic constants — instantaneous modulus of elasticity, Poisson's ratio, shear modulus, bulk modulus, and the shear and volume influence functions — the shear creep kernel, the shear creep rate kernel, and the corresponding relaxation kernels from the data of creep or relaxation tests.Moscow.

Helical flow of a Bingham fluid arising from axial Poiseuille flow between coaxial cylinders

The Bingham fluid model represents viscoplastic materials that display yielding, that is, behave as a solid body at low stresses, but flow as a Newtonian fluid at high stresses. In any Bingham flow, there may be regions of solid material separated from regions of Newtonian flow by so-called yield boundaries. Such materials arise in a range of industrial applications. Here, we consider the helical flow of a Bingham fluid between infinitely long coaxial cylinders, where the flow arises from the imposition of a steady rotation of the inner cylinder (annular Coutte flow) on a steady axial pressure driven flow (Poiseuille flow), where the ratio of the rotational flow compared to the axial flow is small. We apply a perturbation procedure to obtain approximate analytic expressions for the fluid velocity field and such related quantities as the stress and viscosity profiles in the flow. In particular, we examine the location of yield boundaries in the flow and how these vary with the rotation speed of the inner cylinder and other flow parameters. These analytic results are shown to agree very well with the results of numerical computations.
