中等密度下自由冷却粒状混合物的稳定性

Stability of freely cooling granular mixtures at moderate densities

Vicente Garzó

摘要:

自由冷却颗粒流中速度涡和密度团的形成是一个有趣的现象。通过对中等密度下$d$维颗粒二元混合物线性化Navier-Stokes流体动力学方程的稳定性分析,确定了不稳定性发生的临界尺度$L_c$.与以前的尝试相比,分析不限于近弹性系统,因为它考虑到了非线性依赖的传输系数和冷却速率的碰撞耗散。如从在非常稀的制度中获得的先前结果所预期的,线性稳定性显示$d-1$横向(剪切)模式和纵向(“热”)模式相对于足够长的波长激发是不稳定的。理论预测还表明,不稳定性的起源是由速度场的横向分量驱动的,当系统长度为$L>L_c$时,速度场的横向分量变为\emph{unstable}。得到了$L_c$随混合物质量、直径、组成、体积分数和恢复系数变化的显式表达式。在机械等效颗粒和低密度混合物的限制中得到的先前结果一致地恢复。最后,与以前的理论工作,忽略了耗散对输运系数的影响进行了比较,强耗散的定量差异。

英文摘要:

The formation of velocity vortices and density clusters is an intriguing phenomenon of freely cooling granular flows. In this work, the critical length scale $L_c$ for the onset of instability is determined via stability analysis of the linearized Navier-Stokes hydrodynamic equations of $d$-dimensional granular binary mixtures at moderate densities. In contrast to previous attempts, the analysis is not restricted to nearly elastic systems since it takes into account the nonlinear dependence of the transport coefficients and the cooling rate on the collisional dissipation. As expected from previous results obtained in the very dilute regime, linear stability shows $d-1$ transversal (shear) modes and a longitudinal ("heat") mode to be unstable with respect to long enough wavelength excitations. The theoretical predictions also show that the origin of the instability is driven by the transversal component of the velocity field that becomes \emph{unstable} when the system length $L>L_c$. An explicit expression of $L_c$ is obtained in terms of the masses and diameters of the mixture, the composition, the volume fraction and the coefficients of restitution. Previous results derived in the limit of both mechanically equivalent particles and low-density mixtures are consistently recovered. Finally, a comparison with previous theoretical works which neglect the influence of dissipation on the transport coefficients shows quantitative discrepancies for strong dissipation.
