An appropriate model of the Reynolds stress tensor is vital for an accurate prediction of the fluid flow in cyclones, and this also affects the particle flow simulations. This is because the highly rotating fluid flow produces a. strong nonisotropy in the turbulent structure that causes some of the most popular turbulence models, such as the standard k-e turbulence model, to produce inaccurate predictions of the fluid flow. The Reynolds stress models (RSMs) perform much better, but one of the major drawbacks of these methods is their very complex formulation, which often makes it difficult to both implement the method and obtain convergence. The renormalization group (RNG) turbulence model has been employed by some researchers for the fluid flow in cyclones, and some reasonably good predictions have been obtained for the fluid flow. [Pg.1209]

In good solvents, the mean force is of the repulsive type when the two polymer segments come to a close distance and the excluded volume is positive this tends to swell the polymer coil which deviates from the ideal chain behavior described previously by Eq. (1). Once the excluded volume effect is introduced into the model of a real polymer chain, an exact calculation becomes impossible and various schemes of simplification have been proposed. The excluded volume effect, first discussed by Kuhn [25], was calculated by Flory [24] and further refined by many different authors over the years [27]. The rigorous treatment, however, was only recently achieved, with the application of renormalization group theory. The renormalization group techniques have been developed to solve many-body problems in physics and chemistry. De Gennes was the first to point out that the same approach could be used to calculate the MW dependence of global properties... [Pg.82]

The lattice gas model of Bell et al. [33] neither gave any detailed mechanism of the orientational ordering nor separated the contributions of the headgroup and the acyl chain. Lavis et al. [34] discussed Ref. 33 critically and concluded that the sharp kink point in the isotherm at transition was an artifact of the mean field approximation used. An improved correspondence to experimental data was claimed by the use of the real-space renormalization group method [35]. The same authors returned to the problem [35] and concluded that in addition to the orientation of the molecules, chain melting had to be included in a model which could interpret the phase transitions. [Pg.539]

Our group has made extensive use of the RNG k-e model (Nijemeisland and Dixon, 2004), which is derived from the instantaneous Navier-Stokes equations using the Renormalization Group method (Yakhot and Orszag, 1986) as opposed to the standard k-e model, which is based on Reynolds averaging. The... [Pg.319]

In this chapter, we will focus on the entanglement behavior in QPT for the two-dimensional array of quantum dots, which provide a suitable arena for implementation of quantum computation [88, 89, 103]. For this purpose, the real-space renormalization group technique [91] will be utilized and developed for the finite-size analysis of entanglement. The model that we will be using is the Hubbard model [83],... [Pg.519]

Finally, for completeness in Appendix A 7.1 we consider the formal relation of the continuous chain model to a field theoretic Hamiltonian, used to describe critical phenomena in ferrornagnets. It was this relation discovered by de Genries [dG72] and extended by Des Cloizeaux [Clo75, which initiated the application of the renormalization group to polymer solutions and led to the embedding into the larger realm of critical phenomena. [Pg.105]

We discuss here the basic ideas of the renormalization group, using the discrete chain model. This is not the most elegant or powerful approach, and in Part Til of this book we will present a much more efficient scheme. However, the present approach is conceptually the simplest, and it allows us to explain all the relevant features dilatation symmetry and scaling, fixed points and universality, crossover. Furthermore, technical aspects like the e-expansion also come up. We are then prepared to discuss the Qualitative concept of scaling in its general form and to work out some consequences. [Pg.125]

Having at hand the techniques of perturbation thry and the renormalization group we are prepared to consider once more a question of fundamental importance can we justify our simple model Are we really allowed to ignore many-body interactions or other features of a microscopically realistic description of the polymer solution On a very superficial level we discussed this problem in Seet. 2.2. Let us critically reconsider that argument. [Pg.155]

Let us now embed the renormalization group, Constructed in Chap. 8, iftto this general framework. As mentioned above, relation (8.5) shows that the RG we are searching for must be a nonlinear representation of the group of dilatations in the space of parameters. , n,/ e). These are the microscopic parameters of the model, and the representation shall leave macroscopic observables invariant. Furthermore we want the representation to show a nontrivial fixed point. In Sect. 8.2 we have constructed such a representation based on first order perturbation theory. The invariance constraint is obeyed within deviations of order 1+e 2, no = n(A = 1). Equations (8.38), (8.42) give the parameter flow under this nonlinear representation in the standard form (10.28),... [Pg.165]
