Roughness induced boundary slip in microchannel flows.
Surface roughness becomes relevant if typical length scales of the system are comparable to the variations as it is the case in microfluidic setups. Here, an apparent slip is often detected which can have its origin in the misleading assumption of perfectly smooth boundaries. We investigate the problem by means of lattice Boltzmann simulations and introduce an "effective no-slip plane" at an in...
متن کاملSurface roughness-hydrophobicity coupling in microchannel and nanochannel flows.
An approach based on a lattice version of the Boltzmann kinetic equation for describing multiphase flows in nano- and microcorrugated devices is proposed. We specialize it to describe the wetting-dewetting transition of fluids in the presence of nanoscopic grooves etched on the boundaries. This approach permits us to retain the essential supramolecular details of fluid-solid interactions withou...
متن کاملUnified slip boundary condition for fluid flows.
Determining the correct matching boundary condition is fundamental to our understanding of several everyday problems. Despite over a century of scientific work, existing velocity boundary conditions are unable to consistently explain and capture the complete physics associated with certain common but complex problems, such as moving contact lines and corner flows. The widely used Maxwell and Na...
متن کاملRoughness-induced transition in high speed flows
Roughness elements in a laminar boundary layer can cause the flow to transition. The effects of discrete and distributed roughness are explored using direct numerical simulation on unstructured grids. Velocity profiles for Mach 8.12 flow past a cylindrical roughness element are compared to experiment. Flow features produced by an isolated hemispherical bump are studied for three Mach numbers [3...
متن کاملWall Slip and Boundary Effects in Polymer Shear Flows
Polymer – surface interactions strongly influence many important industrial and rheological flows. In particular, polymer melts and solutions slip against the surface; this has long been associated with sharkskin and spurt in extrusion, and recent experimental observations suggest that slip also plays a role in the formation of enhanced concentration fluctuations in entangled polymer solutions....
