摘要:

一个有趣的现象显示的颗粒流和基于动力学理论的模型预测的不稳定性被称为颗粒“集群”,这是指耗散颗粒形成相对高浓度的瞬态,松散的区域的趋势。在这项工作中,我们评估了最近提出的修正Sonine近似[Garzó等人,Physica A 376,94(2007)]通过系统稳定性的检查对粒状气体进行了分析。特别是,我们确定的临界长度尺度与发病的两种类型的不稳定性-涡和集群-通过稳定性分析的Navier-Stokes阶流体动力学方程,通过使用从标准和修改的Sonine近似得到的传输系数的表达式。我们研究了在固体分数ε <0.2的范围内,对于小的恢复系数e=0.25--0.4,标准理论和修正理论表现出差异的Sonine近似的影响。的临界长度尺度的理论预测相比,分子动力学(MD)模拟,其中一小部分没有被认为是由于非弹性崩溃。结果表明,MD和改进的Sonine理论之间的定量协议,而标准的理论失去了这个高度耗散的参数空间的准确性。修改后的理论还补救了(highdissipation)的标准理论和MD之间的定性不匹配的不稳定性,更容易形成。此外,集群大小的演变通过MD简要检查,表明域大小的集群可能保持稳定或减半的大小,这取决于系统参数。

英文摘要:

An intriguing phenomenon displayed by granular flows and predicted by kinetic-theory-based models is the instability known as particle "clustering," which refers to the tendency of dissipative grains to form transient, loose regions of relatively high concentration. In this work, we assess a modified-Sonine approximation recently proposed [Garzó et al., Physica A 376, 94 (2007)] for a granular gas via an examination of system stability. In particular, we determine the critical length scale associated with the onset of two types of instabilities -vortices and clusters- via stability analyses of the Navier-Stokes-order hydrodynamic equations by using the expressions of the transport coefficients obtained from both the standard and the modified-Sonine approximations. We examine the impact of both Sonine approximations over a range of solids fraction ϕ<0.2 for small restitution coefficients e=0.25--0.4, where the standard and modified theories exhibit discrepancies. The theoretical predictions for the critical length scales are compared to molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, of which a small percentage were not considered due to inelastic collapse. Results show excellent quantitative agreement between MD and the modified-Sonine theory, while the standard theory loses accuracy for this highly dissipative parameter space. The modified theory also remedies a (highdissipation) qualitative mismatch between the standard theory and MD for the instability that forms more readily. Furthermore, the evolution of cluster size is briefly examined via MD, indicating that domain-size clusters may remain stable or halve in size, depending on system parameters.
