Rarefied Gas Flows

Analytical solutions for slip flows in the hydrodynamic entrance region of tubes and channels are examined. These solutions employ a linearized axial momentum equation using Targ's method. The momentum equation is subjected to a first order Navier slip boundary condition. The accuracy of these solutions is examined using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations. CFD simulations utilized the full Navier–Stokes equations, so that the implications of the approximate linearized axial momentum equation could be fully assessed. Results are presented in terms of the dimensionless mean wall shear stress, τ⋆, as a function of local dimensionless axial coordinate, ξ, and relative slip parameter, β. These solutions can be applied to either rarefied gas flows when compressibility effects are small or apparent liquid slip over hydrophobic and superhydrophobic surfaces. It has been found that, under slip conditions, the minimum Reynolds number should be ReDh>100 in order for the approximate linearized solution to remain valid.

In micro or nano flows a slip boundary condition is often needed to account for the special flow situation that occurs at this level of refinement. A common model used in the Finite Volume Method (FVM) is the Navier-Slip model which is based on the velocity gradient at the wall. It can be implemented very easily for a Navier-Stokes (NS) Solver. Instead of directly solving the Navier-Stokes equations, the Lattice-Boltzmann method (LBM) models the fluid on a particle basis. It models the streaming and interaction of particles statistically. The pressure and the velocity can be calculated at every time step from the current particle distribution functions. The resulting fields are solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations. Boundary conditions in LBM always not only have to define values for the macroscopic variables but also for the particle distribution function. Therefore a slip model cannot be implemented in the same way as in a FVM-NS solver. An additional problem is the structure of the grid. Curved boundaries or boundaries that are non-parallel to the grid have to be approximated by a stair-like step profile. While this is no problem for no-slip boundaries, any other velocity boundary condition such as a slip condition is difficult to implement. In this paper we will present two different implementations of slip boundary conditions for the Lattice-Boltzmann approach. One will be an implementation that takes advantage of the microscopic nature of the method as it works on a particle basis. The other one is based on the Navier-Slip model. We will compare their applicability for different amounts of slip and different shapes of walls relative to the numerical grid. We will also show what limits the slip rate and give an outlook of how this can be avoided.

Boltzmann Method

By means of the continuity equation of the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations, additional physical arguments for the derivation of a formulation of the no-slip boundary condition for the lattice Boltzmann method for straight walls at rest are obtained. This leads to a boundary condition that is second-order accurate with respect to the grid spacing and conserves mass. In addition, the boundary condition is stable for relaxation frequencies close to two.

Abstract H.-O. Bae and H.J. Choe, in a 1997 paper, established a regularity criteria for the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in the whole space ℝ3 based on two velocity components. Recently, one of the present authors extended this result to the half-space case $\begin{array}{} \displaystyle \mathbb{R}^3_+ \end{array}$. Further, this author in collaboration with J. Bemelmans and J. Brand extended the result to cylindrical domains under physical slip boundary conditions. In this note we obtain a similar result in the case of smooth arbitrary boundaries, but under a distinct, apparently very similar, slip boundary condition. They coincide just on flat portions of the boundary. Otherwise, a reciprocal reduction between the two results looks not obvious, as shown in the last section below.

Sudden Impulse

The flow of a viscous compressible fluid in a circular tube generated by a sudden impulse at a point on the axis is studied on the basis of the linearized Navier–Stokes equations. A no-slip boundary condition is assumed to hold on the wall of the tube. An efficient numerical scheme has been developed for the calculation of flow velocity and pressure disturbance as a function of position and time.

Experimental And Theoretical Studies

In recent years, few experimental and theoretical studies have been conducted to predict gas leak rate through gaskets. However a very limited work is done on liquid leak rates through gaskets. A new method based on a slip flow model to predict liquid flow through nano-porous gaskets is presented. A recent study [1] had shown that the leakage prediction based on the porosity parameter approach was successful in predicting gaseous leaks and an extrapolation of the latter to liquid leaks is the purpose of this study. In the present article, an analytical-computational methodology based on the number and pore size to predict liquid nanoflow in the slip flow regime through gaskets is presented. The formulation is based on the Navier-Stokes equations associated to slip boundary condition at the wall. The mass leak rates through a gasket considered as a porous media under variable experimentally conditions of (fluid media, pressure, and gasket stress) were conducted on a test bench. Gaseous and liquid leaks are measured and comparisons are made with the analytical predictions.
