Elastic instabilities in planar elongational flow of monodisperse polymer solutions

We investigate purely elastic flow instabilities in the almost ideal planar stagnation point elongational flow field generated by a microfluidic optimized-shape cross-slot extensional rheometer (OSCER). We use time-resolved flow velocimetry and full-field birefringence microscopy to study the behavior of a series of well-characterized viscoelastic polymer solutions under conditions of low fluid...

Elastic instabilities of polymer solutions in cross-channel flow.

When polymer molecules pass near the hyperbolic point of a microchannel cross flow, they are strongly stretched. As the strain rate is varied at low Reynolds number (< 10(-2)), tracer and particle-tracking experiments show that molecular stretching produces two flow instabilities: one in which the velocity field becomes strongly asymmetric, and a second in which it fluctuates nonperiodically in...

Single polymer dynamics in an elongational flow.

The stretching of individual polymers in a spatially homogeneous velocity gradient was observed through use of fluorescently labeled DNA molecules. The probability distribution of molecular extension was determined as a function of time and strain rate. Although some molecules reached steady state, the average extension did not, even after a approximately 300-fold distortion of the underlying f...

Buckling instabilities in dilute polymer solution elastic strands

A microfluidic oscillatory cross-slot flow is used to visualize birefringent strands in dilute polystyrene solutions with high temporal resolution, focusing specifically on reversals in the flow direction. Due to polymer conformation hysteresis, the elastic strands are slow to relax and demonstrate a compressive modulus, resulting in a “buckling instability.” An elastic loop of birefringence fo...
