Spinodal decomposition of off-critical quenches with a viscous phase using dissipative particle dynamics in two and three spatial dimensions
نویسندگان
چکیده
We investigate the domain growth and phase separation of hydrodynamically correct binary immiscible fluids of differing viscosity as a function of minority phase concentration in both two and three spatial dimensions using dissipative particle dynamics. We also examine the behavior of equal-viscosity fluids and compare our results to similar lattice-gas simulations in two dimensions.

Hydrodynamic spinodal decomposition: Growth kinetics and scaling functions.
We examine the effects of hydrodynamics on the late stage kinetics in spinodal decomposition. From computer simulations of a lattice Boltzmann scheme we observe, for critical quenches, that single phase domains grow asymptotically like t, with α ≈ .66 in two dimensions and α ≈ 1.0 in three dimensions, both in excellent agreement with theoretical predictions.
متن کاملDissipative Particle Dynamics simulation hydrated Nafion EW 1200 as fuel cell membrane in nanoscopic scale
The microphase separation of hydrated perfluorinated sulfonic acid membrane Nafion was investigated using Dissipative Particle Dynamics (DPD). The nafion as a polymer was modelled by connecting coarse grained beads which corresponds to the hydrophobic backbone of polytetrafluoroethylene and perfluorinated side chains terminated by hydrophilic end particles of sulfonic acid groups [1, 2]. Each f...
متن کاملConcentration fluctuation in binary polymer blends: x parameter, spinodal and Ginzburg criterion
A theory for concentration fluctuations in binary polymer blends is developed using field-theoretic techniques. The theory provides a simple, unified framework for addressing a number of important issues. First, consideration of the fluctuation and correlation effects on different length scales leads to a clarification of three different x parameters and their interrelationship. By incorporatin...
متن کاملSpinodal Decomposition in Binary Gases
We carried out three-dimensional simulations, with about 1.4 × 10 particles, of phase segregation in a low density binary fluid mixture, described mesoscopically by energy and momentum conserving Boltzmann-Vlasov equations. Using a combination of Direct Simulation Monte Carlo(DSMC) for the short range collisions and a version of Particle-In-Cell(PIC) evolution for the smooth long range interact...
متن کاملFormation of Poly(vinylidene fluoride) Nanofibers Part II: the elaboration of incompatibility in the electrospinning of its solutions
Poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) fibers with two molecular weights were prepared via electrospinning process. In this process, the concentration of spinning depended drastically on the gelation process. Also, it was experimentally smaller than obtained concentration in the solution entanglement number approach (SENA). Proof of this incompatibility was explained by the properties of PVDF a...
