This study introduces a lattice Boltzmann model for simulating viscoelastic flow, incorporating elastic effects using a Maxwell model. The model successfully captures shear phenomena and validates well against theoretical predictions for viscoelastic fluids.

Area of Science:

  • Computational fluid dynamics
  • Rheology
  • Statistical mechanics

Background:

  • Viscoelastic fluids exhibit both viscous and elastic properties.
  • Simulating viscoelastic flow is computationally challenging.
  • Existing models may not fully capture complex elastic behaviors.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a novel lattice Boltzmann model for viscoelastic flow.
  • To incorporate elastic effects via a Maxwell model.
  • To validate the model's accuracy in predicting shear phenomena.

Main Methods:

  • Developed a lattice Boltzmann model incorporating a Maxwell constitutive equation.
  • Analyzed the transverse velocity autocorrelation function for shear.
  • Investigated boundary-driven shear waves and resonant oscillations.

  • Compared simulation results with Navier-Stokes predictions.
  • Main Results:

    • Observed clear manifestations of shear at high frequencies in a freely evolving system.
    • Characterized boundary-driven shear waves.
    • Demonstrated resonant enhancement of shear oscillations in confined fluids.
    • Achieved good agreement between simulated and theoretical shear-wave dispersion relations.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed lattice Boltzmann model accurately simulates viscoelastic flow.
    • The model effectively captures elastic effects and shear wave phenomena.
    • This approach provides a robust tool for studying complex fluid dynamics.
