Measurement of gas density and viscosity was conducted using a micro-cantilever beam. In parallel, the validity of the proposed modeling approach was evaluated. This study also aimed to widen the database of the gases on which the model development of the micro-cantilever beams is based. The density and viscosity of gases are orders of magnitude lower than liquids. For this reason, the use of a...

Fermi gases with magnetically tunable interactions provide a clean and controllable laboratory system for modeling interparticle interactions between fermions in nature. The s-wave scattering length, which is dominant a low temperature, is made to diverge by tuning near a collisional (Feshbach) resonance. In this regime, two-component Fermi gases are stable and strongly interacting, enabling te...

1.1 This test method covers three procedures for extraction and measurement of gases dissolved in electrical insulating oil having a viscosity of 20 cSt (100 SUS) or less at 40°C (104°F), and the identification and determination of the individual component gases extracted. Other methods have been used to perform this analysis. 1.2 The individual component gases that may be identified and determ...

The Green-Kubo representation of the shear viscosity of a dilute gas of inelastic hard disks derived from the Boltzmann equation is evaluated by means of the direct simulation Monte Carlo method. The relationship between the oneparticle dynamics of the original expression and the N-particle dynamics needed for the simulation is analyzed. The presence of velocity correlations in the latter is id...

We investigate the influence of volume viscosity on a planar shock/hydrogen bubble interaction. The numerical model is two dimensional and involve complex chemistry and detailed transport. All transport coefficients are evaluated using algorithms which provide accurate approximations rigourously derived from the kinetic theory of gases. Our numerical results show that volume viscosity has an im...

We reanalyze previous experimental measurements of solid volume fraction, mean velocity, and velocity fluctuations in collisional suspensions of plastic cylinders and water flowing over inclined, erodible beds. We show that the particle pressure scales with the granular temperature, as predicted by kinetic theory of granular gases. The assumption that the particle shear stress is also well pred...
