Slip in Microchannel Flow Megan Kramer Jaunich December 12, 2006 Introduction Slip in Gas Flow Slip in Liquid Flow Wall Condition Hydrophilic vs. Hydrophobic Reflectivity Surface Roughness Molecular Level Liquid-Solid Interaction Presence of Vapor Layer (Nano-bubbles) Type of Fluid Liquid Flow Velocity Profile with Slip Slip in Gas Flow Flow defined by Knudsen Number Four regions Very Low – No-slip boundary condition Low – Slip boundary condition…………… Large – Boltzmann Equation Very Large – Solid-Fluid Molecular Interactions Slip in Liquid Flow Depends on channel configuration and experimental conditions Empirically developed equations Wall Condition Hydrophilic vs. hydrophobic Slip velocity ~ proportional to square root of shear rate [4,5] Slip length increases ~ linearly with shear rate Reflectivity Surface Roughness Tetradecane and DI water – rougher surface meant better agreement with no-slip condition Minimum surface roughness for no-slip condition Molecular Level Fluid-Solid Interaction Negligible importance on macro-scale Molecular Dynamics simulations Koplik, et al. Double Lennard-Jones potential, or remove it Zero LJ – small slip length on micro-scale Double LJ – no-slip condition held Cieplak, et al. Modeled as LJ potential Controlled velocity through wall parameter, A Slip length, shear stress varied with slip velocity Type of Fluid Water – No-slip holds to 40 nm [11] With controlled channel configurations, height 40 nm, the fluid was varied Slip length varied with size of fluid molecule, larger molecules had larger slip lengths Hexadecane – β ~ 25-30 nm Decane – β ~ 14 nm Hexane – β ~ 9 nm Presence of Gas Layer (Nanobubbles) at Channel Surface Some experiments indicate fluid slip due to a gas layer forming at the solid surface Depleted water region develops when water flows across a hydrophobic surface Assuming no-slip at solid-gas and gas-liquid interfaces [9]: Presence of Gas Layer (Nanobubbles) at Channel Surface Better assumption for gas l
