The lattice model of polymer solutions
In the last note, we looked at the lattice model of small-molecule solutions. We now turn to polymers, using the same machinery. The lattice theory of polymer solutions is known as Flory-Huggins theory. In many ways, you will find this theory similar to the smallsolute case, except that the statistics are a little more complicated given that a polymer is a connected entity. Figure 1 shows a lat...
متن کاملTwo-chamber lattice model for thermodiffusion in polymer solutions
When a temperature gradient is applied to a polymer solution, the polymer typically migrates to the colder regions of the fluid as a result of thermal diffusion ~Soret effect!. However, in recent thermodiffusion experiments on poly~ethylene-oxide! ~PEO! in a mixed ethanol/water solvent it is observed that for some solvent compositions the polymer migrates to the cold side, while for other compo...
متن کاملExact solutions of lattice polymer models
We consider directed path models of a selection of polymer and vesicle problems. Each model is used to illustrate an important method of solving lattice path enumeration problems. In particular, the Temperley method is used for the polymer collapse problem. The ZL method is used to solve the semi-continuous vesicle model. The Constant Term method is used to solve a set of partial difference equ...
متن کاملA lattice Boltzmann method for dilute polymer solutions.
We present a lattice Boltzmann approach for the simulation of non-Newtonian fluids. The method is illustrated for the specific case of dilute polymer solutions. With the appropriate local equilibrium distribution, phase-space dynamics on a lattice, driven by a Bhatnagar-Gross-Krook (BGK) relaxation term, leads to a solution of the Fokker-Planck equation governing the probability density of poly...
متن کاملLattice Boltzmann model for binary mixtures.
An a priori derivation of the lattice Boltzmann equations for binary mixtures is provided by discretizing the Boltzmann equations that govern the evolution of binary mixtures. The present model leads to a set of two-fluid hydrodynamic equations for the mixture. In existing models, employing the single-relaxation-time approximation, the viscosity and diffusion coefficients are coupled through th...
