Stability viscous fluids

Chemical Stabilization. The chemistry of the system determines both the rate at which the polymer phase is formed and the rate at which it changes from a viscous fluid to a dimensionally stable cross-linked polymer phase. It also governs the rate at which the blowing agent is activated, whether it is due to temperature rise or to insolubilization in the Hquid phase. 

Flow in a Tube. Laminar flow with a flat velocity profile and slip at the walls can occur when a viscous fluid is strongly heated at the walls or is highly non-Newtonian. It is sometimes called toothpaste flow. If you have ever used Stripe toothpaste, you will recognize that toothpaste flow is quite different than piston flow. Although Vflr) = u and z(7) = 1, there is little or no mixing in the radial direction, and what mixing there is occurs by diffusion. In this situation, the centerline is the critical location with respect to stability, and the stability criterion is... 

The characteristics of the neat soap aie controlled easily by accurately governing the composition of the alkaline solution used. Normal hydrolyzer neat soap contains about 69% actual soap, 30% water, and less than 1% NaQ, plus other stabilizers. Neat soap is a uniform, translucent, white, viscous fluid at 180-200 (82-93°C). 

Structured gel and emulsion formulations, designed to suspend particles or oils, are generally viscoelastic. They have both viscous and elastic properties. Such formulations are characterized by their elastic modulus (( ) and loss modulus (G"). The elastic modulus (elastic component) is a measure of energy storage and the loss modulus (viscous component) is a measure of energy dissipation. For viscoelastic fluids G > G" and for viscous fluids G < G". For a suspension or emulsion to be stable G should be greater than G" over the range of temperature required for stability. 

Figure 12-3. The stability bound according to the Rayleigh criteria (12-139), and the stability bound for a viscous fluid calculated from the thin-gap approximation (12-158). In this figure, we have assumed that = 8 cm and = 7 cm.

If 22 = 0, for example, the Rayleigh criterion indicates that Couette flow is unstable for any 12]. On the other hand, the approximate stability criterion (12-158) for a viscous fluid says that the system will remain stable for... 

W hen the dimensionless permeability k/d1 is equal to zero, the problem reduces to the Darcy approximation that was analyzed in the previous problem. On the other hand, for k/d1 — oo, the problem is the classical Rayleigh Benard case for a single viscous fluid. With the notation of Section H, the governing equation at the neutral stability point becomes... 

In view of sensitivity, the liquid crystal system is more improved than the previously mentioned systems. However, these liquid crystalline materials are viscous fluids and thus the long term image stability is not expected. To overcome this shortcoming, image amplification in a solid system has to be designed. 

To summarize then, Rayleigh, motivated by B6nard s experiments, deduced the conditions for the existence of stability (preconvective equilibrium) in viscous fluid layers heated from below, and laid the framework for the hydrodynamic stability analysis of such phenomena. However, as Rayleigh himself pointed out, the boundary conditions he employed corresponded neither to the experiments of Benard, nor perhaps to any physically realizable system, and it became necessary therefore to extend Rayleigh s problem to other sets of boundary conditions.

We should especially consider the question of the influence exerted by thermal stabilizers on the reprocessing process. As is well known, the reprocessing of polyvinyl chloride and vinyl chloride copolymers is hindered by the fact that in these polymers the temperature of transition to the viscous-fluid state, as a rule, exceeds the temperature of the begin-...
