单链在剪切流中的翻滚运动:从布朗行为到非布朗行为的一种交叉

Tumbling motion of a single chain in shear flow: a crossover from Brownian to non-Brownian behavior

Hideki Kobayashi, Ryoichi Yamamoto

摘要:

我们提出了一个稳定的剪切流中的单链动力学的数值结果。该链是由珠弹簧模型表示,和平滑的配置文件的方法是用来准确地考虑由于主机流体作用于珠的热波动和流体动力学相互作用的影响。据观察,链进行翻滚运动,其无量纲频率F只取决于Peclet数Pe的幂律。在临界Peclet数附近,Pe的指数从2/3明显变化到1,表明这种交叉反映了热脉动和剪切流的竞争。数值结果与Jeffery的理论分析结果吻合较好。

英文摘要:

We present numerical results for the dynamics of a single chain in steady shear flow. The chain is represented by a bead-spring model, and the smoothed profile method is used to accurately account for the effects of thermal fluctuations and hydrodynamic interactions acting on beads due to host fluids. It is observed that the chain undergoes tumbling motions and that its dimensionless frequency F depends only on the Peclet number Pe with a power law. The exponent of Pe clearly changes from 2/3 to 1 around the critical Peclet number, indicating that the crossover reflects the competition of thermal fluctuation and shear flow. The presented numerical results agree well with our theoretical analysis based on Jeffery's work.
