Polar fluids transformation

Our notation here essentially follows Refs. 4 and 5, which in turn closely followed that of Lebowitz, Stell, and Baer and of Stell, Lebowitz, Baer, and Theumann. There are minor differences from paper to paper, however. Our 2 and W here are the 2 and U fVof Ref. 4. In Ref. 6 n W is used to denote what we call IT here, whereas in Ref. 7, W is used to denote our 2. The 13(12) here is the <1> of Refs. 6 and 7. Moreover, the modified two-particle functions we denote here with the subscript S are denoted in the papers above with a caret, and their Fourier transforms carry a bar. (We reserve the caret and bar here to denote certain spherically symmetric functions and Hankel transforms that play a fundamental role in the mathematics of polar fluids.) Finally, in Refs. 4 and 5, p(l), p(12), and F 2) were written as p,(l), P2(12), and Fjfn), respectively. The subscripts are redundant when one exhibits the arguments, so we drop them here. 

An example of a practical dielec trofilter which uses both of the features described, namely, sharp electrodes and dielectric field-warping filler materials, is that described in Fig. 22-34 [H. I. Hall and R. F. Brown, Lubric. Eng., 22, 488 (1966)]) It is intended for use with hydrauhc fluids, fuel oils, lubricating oils, transformer oils, lubricants, and various refineiy streams. Performance data are cited in Fig. 22-35. It must be remarked that in the opinion of Hall and Brown the action of the dielec trofilter was electrostatic and due to free charge on the particles dispersed in the hquids. It is the present authors opinion, however, that both elec trophoresis and dielectrophoresis are operative here but that the dominant mechanism is that of DEP, in wdiich neutral particles are polarized and attracted to the regions of highest field intensity. 

We note that earlier research focused on the similarities of defect interaction and their motion in block copolymers and thermotropic nematics or smectics [181, 182], Thermotropic liquid crystals, however, are one-component homogeneous systems and are characterized by a non-conserved orientational order parameter. In contrast, in block copolymers the local concentration difference between two components is essentially conserved. In this respect, the microphase-separated structures in block copolymers are anticipated to have close similarities to lyotropic systems, which are composed of a polar medium (water) and a non-polar medium (surfactant structure). The phases of the lyotropic systems (such as lamella, cylinder, or micellar phases) are determined by the surfactant concentration. Similarly to lyotropic phases, the morphology in block copolymers is ascertained by the volume fraction of the components and their interaction. Therefore, in lyotropic systems and in block copolymers, the dynamics and annihilation of structural defects require a change in the local concentration difference between components as well as a change in the orientational order. Consequently, if single defect transformations could be monitored in real time and space, block copolymers could be considered as suitable model systems for studying transport mechanisms and phase transitions in 2D fluid materials such as membranes [183], lyotropic liquid crystals [184], and microemulsions [185],... 

Two terms in Eqs. (17) and (18) are worthy of special note. In Eq. (17) the term pvj/r is the centrifugal force. That is, it is the effective force in the r direction arising from fluid motion in the 0 direction. Similarly, in Eq. (18) pvrvg/r is the Coriolis force, or effective force in the 0 direction due to motion in both the r and 0 directions. Both of these forces arise naturally in the transformation of coordinates from the Cartesian frame to the cylindrical polar frame. They are properly part of the acceleration vector and do not need to be added on physical grounds. 

Infrared, near-infrared (see Sec. 6.2), and Raman high-pressure techniques are very suitable tools for the characterization of fluid states and especially for the quantitative analysis of fluids. Sec. 6.7.2 shows a few cells which are u.sed for the vibrational spectroscopy of fluids at pressures up to a maximum of 7 kbar and at temperatures up to 650 °C, although the maximum conditions of both pressure and temperature arc not simultaneously applied (see also Buback, 1991). Sec. 6.7.3 describes changes in the vibrational spectra of polar substances and of aqueous solutions, and Sec. 6.7.4 presents a few applications of high-pressure spectroscopy in the investigation of chemical transformations. 

The three Navier-Stokes equations can be put in very compact form by using the shorthand notation of vector calculus [6, p. 66 7 8, p. 80]. Furthermore, it is often convenient to use these equations in polar or spherical coordinates their transformations to those coordinate systems are shown in many texts [6, p. 66 8, p. 80]. The corresponding equations for fluids with variable density are also shown in numerous texts [6, p. 66 7 8, p. 80]. If we set /A = 0 in the Navier-Stokes equations, thus dropping the rightmost term, we find the Euler equation which is often used for three-dimensional flow where viscous effects are negligible.
