Tangential Traction

We prove the existence, uniqueness and continuous dependence on the data of weak solutions to boundary-value problems that model steady flows of incompressible Newtonian fluids with wall slip in bounded domains. The flows satisfy the Stokes equations and a nonlinear slip boundary condition: for slip to occur, the magnitude of the tangential traction must exceed a prescribed threshold, which is independent of the normal stress, and where slip occurs the tangential traction is equal to a prescribed, possibly nonlinear, function of the slip velocity. In addition, a Dirichlet condition is imposed on a component of the boundary if the domain is rotationally symmetric. The method of proof is based on a variational inequality formulation of the problem and fixed point arguments which utilize wellposedness results for the Stokes problem with a slip condition of the "friction type".

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.

Numerical investigation of a gas flow through microchannels with a sharp, 90 degrees bend is carried out using Navier-Stokes (N-S) equations with the classical Maxwell first-order slip boundary condition, including the tangential gradient effect due to the wall curvature, and Smoluchowski first order temperature jump definition. The details of the flow structure near the corner are analyzed, investigating the competing effects of rarefaction and compressibility on the channel performances. The flow characteristics in terms of velocity profiles, slip velocity distribution along inner and outer wall, pressure, average Mach number along central line of the channel have been presented. The results showed that impact of the bend on the channel performances is smaller at high rarefaction levels. The behaviour of pressure and velocity away from the bend is similar to that of a straight microchannel; however, the asymmetry in the flow at the bend, with high velocities and high velocity gradients on its inner side, has a strong impact on wall slip velocities. The presence of a recirculation is detected on both the inner and outer walls of the corner for larger Reynolds. However, rarefaction may delay the onset of recirculation. It is also observed that the mass flux through a bend microchannel can even be slightly larger than that through a straight microchannel of the same length and subjected to the same pressure difference.

The effects of compressibility and rarefaction for gas flow in microchannels have been extensively studied separately. However, these two effects are always combined for gas flow in microchannels. In this paper, the two-dimensional compressible Navier-Stokes equations are solved for gas flow in parallel plate channels with a slip boundary condition to study the combined effects of compressibility and rarefaction on the friction factor. The numerical methodology is based on the control volume finite difference scheme. It is found that the effect of compressibility increases the velocity gradient near the wall which then increases the friction factor. On the other hand, increasing the velocity gradient near the wall leads to a much larger slip velocity and implies a stronger rarefaction effect and a corresponding decrease in the friction factor. These two opposite effects make the effect of compressibility on friction factor for slip flow weaker than that for no-slip compressible flow. A correlation among fRe, Kn and Ma is presented. The correlation is validated with available experimental and analytical results.

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.

Boltzmann Method

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.
