Interaction of Fluid flow with Solid walls

This article explores the interaction of fluid flow with solid walls, specifically focusing on the no-slip boundary condition in viscous flows. It discusses the abrupt change in velocity of fluid particles upon collision with a solid wall and the implications for both normal and tangential velocity components. The concepts of specular and diffusive reflection are introduced, along with the idea of thermodynamic equilibrium and the peculiar conditions near a solid wall in fluid flow.

  1. Interaction of Fluid flow with Solid walls P M V Subbarao Professor Mechanical Engineering Department I I T Delhi How many Fluid Particles are getting Affted by Wall & to What extent!?!?!

  2. The No-Slip Boundary Condition in Viscous Flows When this particle hits a wall of a solid body, its velocity abruptly changes. • The Riddle of Fluid Sticking to the Wall in Flow. • Consider an isolated fluid particle. vr ui ur vi This abrupt change in momentum of the patricle is achieved by an equal and opposite change in that of the wall or the body.

  3. Video of the Event • At the point of collision we can identify normal and tangential directions n and t to the wall. • The time of impact t0 is very brief. • It is a good assumption to conclude that the normal velocity vnwill be reversed with a reduction in magnitude because of loss of mechanical energy. • If we assume the time of impact to be zero, the normal velocity component vnis seen to be discontinuous and also with a change in sign. vr ui ur vi Φr Φi

  4. Time variation of normal and tangential velocitycomponents of the impinging particle. Whether it is discontinuous or not, the fact that the particle has to change the sign of its normal velocity, is obvious, since the particle cannot continue penetrating into the solid wall.

  5. The Tangential Component of Velocity • The case of the tangential component vtis far more complex and more interesting. • First of all, the particle will continue to move in the same direction and hence there is no change in sign. • If the wall and the ball are perfectly smooth (i.e. frictionless). • vtwill not change at all. • In case of rough surfaces vtwill decrease a little. • It is important to note that vtis nowhere zero. • Even though the ball sticks to the wall for a brief period t0, at no time its tangential velocity is zero! • The ball can also roll on the wall.

  6. The Ideal Interaction : Max Well (1879) • When the particle hits a smooth wall of a solid body, its velocity abruptly changes. • This sudden change due to perfectly smooth surface (ideal surface) was defined by Max Well as Specular Reflection in 1879. • The Slip is unbounded vr ui ur vi Φr Φi

  7. When the particle hits a rough wall of a solid body, its velocity also changes. • This sudden change due to a rough surface (real surface) was defined by Max Well as Diffusive Reflection in 1879. • The Slip is finite. An Irreversible Interaction : Max Well (1879) vr ui ur vi Φr Φi

  8. The condition of fluid flow at the Wall • Fluid flow at wall is fundamentally different from the case of an isolated particle since a fluidflow is a field. • The difference is that a fluid parcel in contact with a wall also interacts with the neighboring fluid. • The problem of velocity boundary condition demands the recognition of this difference. • During the whole of 19th century extensive work was required to resolve the issue. • The idea is that the normal component of velocity at the solid wall should be zero to satisfy the no penetration condition. • What fraction of fluid particles will partially/totally lose their tangential velocity in a fluid flow?

  9. Thermodynamic equilibrium • Thermodynamic equilibrium implies that the macroscopic quantities need sufficient time to adjust to their changing surroundings. • In motion, exact thermodynamic equilibrium is impossible as each fluid particle is continuously having volume, momentum or energy added or removed. • Fluid flow heat transfer can at the most reach quasi-equilibrium. • The second law of thermodynamics imposes a tendency to revert to equilibrium state. • This also defines whether or not the flow quantities are adjusting fast enough.

  10. A Peculiar condition for fluid flow at Solid wall • In the region of a fluid flow very close to a solid surface, the occurrence of quasi thermodynamic equlibrium is also doubtful. • This is because there are insufficient molecular-molecular and molecular-surface collisions over this very small scale. • Fails to justify the occurrence of quasi thermodynamic-equilibrium. • Two characteristics of this near-surface region of a gas flow are the following: • First, there is a finite velocity of the gas at the surface ( velocity slip). • Second, there exists a non-Newtonian stress/strain-rate relationship that extends a few molecular dimensions into the gas. • This region is known as the Knudsen layer or kinetic boundary layer.

  12. Molecular Flow Dimensions • Mean Free Path is identified as the smallest dimensions of gaseous Flow. • MFP is the distance travelled by gaseous molecules between collisions. • Lattice Spacing is identified as the smallest dimensions of liquid Flow. Mean free path : Lattice Dimension: d : diameter of the molecule V is the molar volume NA : Avogadro’s number. n : molar density of the fluid, number molecules/m3

  13. Velocity Extrapolation Theory Knudsen defined a non-dimensional distance as the ratio of mean free path of the gas to the characteristic dimension of the system. This is called “Knudsen number”

  14. Boundary Conditions • Maxwell was the first to propose the boundary model that has been widely used in various modified forms. • Maxwell’s model is the most convenient and correct formulation. • Maxwell’s model assumes that the boundary surface is impenetrable. • The boundary model is constructed on the assumption that some fraction (1-ar) of the incident fluid molecules are reflected form the surface specularly. • The remaining fraction ar are reflected diffusely with a Maxwell distribution. • argives the fraction of the tangential momentum of the incident molecules transmitted to the surface by all molecules. • This parameter is called the tangential momentum accommodation coefficient.

  15. Slip Boundary conditions Maxwell proposed the first order slip boundary condition for a dilute monoatomic gas given by: Where : Tangential momentum accommodation coefficient ( TMAC ) -- -- Velocity of gas adjacent to the wall -- Velocity of wall -- Mean free path -- Velocity gradient normal to the surface

  16. Modified Boundary Conditions Non-dimensional form ( I order slip boundary condition) ----- Using the Taylor series expansion of u about the wall, Maxwell proposed second order terms slip boundary condition given by: Second order slip boundary condition Maxwell second order slip condition -----

  17. Regimes of Engineering Fluid Flows • Conventional engineering flows: Kn < 0.001 • Micro Fluidic Devices : Kn < 0.1 • Ultra Micro Fluidic Devices : Kn <1.0

  18. Flow Regimes • Based on the Knudsen number magnitude, flow regimes can be classified as follows :Continuum Regime : Kn < 0.001Slip Flow Regime : 0.001 < Kn < 0.1Transition Regime : 0.1 < Kn < 10Free Molecular Regime : Kn > 10 • In continuum regime no-slip conditions are valid. • In slip flow regime first order slip boundary conditions are applicable. • In transition regime (according to the literature present) higher order slip boundary conditions may be valid. • Transition regime with high Knudsen number and free molecular regime need molecular dynamics.

  19. Popular Creeping Flows • Fully developed duct Flow. • Flow about immersed bodies • Flow in narrow but variable passages. First formulated by Reynolds (1886) and known as lubrication theory, • Flow through porous media. This topic began with a famous treatise by Darcy (1856) • Civil engineers have long applied porous-media theory to groundwater movement. • http://www.ae.metu.edu.tr/~ae244/docs/FluidMechanics-by-JamesFay/2003/Textbook/Nodes/chap06/node17.html
