Phase separation in a homogeneous shear flow: morphology, growth laws, and dynamic scaling.
We numerically investigate the influence of a homogeneous shear flow on the spinodal decomposition of a binary mixture by solving the Cahn-Hilliard equation in a two-dimensional geometry. Several aspects of this much studied problem are clarified. Our numerical data show unambiguously that, in the shear flow, the domains have on average an elliptic shape. The time evolution of the three paramet...
متن کاملScaling laws and intermittency in homogeneous shear flow
1 Abstract In this paper we discuss the dynamical features of intermittent fluctuations in homogeneous shear flow turbulence. In this flow the energy cascade is strongly modified by the production of turbulent kinetic energy related to the presence of vortical structures induced by the shear. By using direct numerical simulations, we show that the refined Kolmogorov similarity is broken and a n...

متن کاملViscoelastic phase separation in shear flow.
We numerically investigate viscoelastic phase separation in polymer solutions under shear using a time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau model. The gross variables in our model are the polymer volume fraction and a conformation tensor. The latter represents chain deformations and relaxes slowly on the rheological time giving rise to a large viscoelastic stress. The polymer and the solvent obey two-flui...
متن کاملThermodynamic properties of phase separation in shear flow
The steady state thermodynamic properties of a binary-phase shear fluid are studied quantitatively using the compressible lattice Boltzmann BGK theory with mesoscopic inter-particle potentials. For the Newtonian van der Waals fluid, numerical calculation shows that the effect of boundary shear on steady state phase diagram of immiscible phases is negligible when the fluid is not in the near-cri...
