A note to the simplification in description of some molecular-based polymer models
Kharlamov, Alexander; Filip, Petr
2010 - English
One type of integral is frequently met in various description of behaviour of polymer materials through molecular-based models starting with the classical Doi-Edwards one. The integrand in this integral for which an integrated region represents a solid angle is formed by a product of a unit vector (pointed at an element of this region) with a deformation gradient tensor. This product is raised to an exponent that is not usually an integer. The aim of this contribution is to derive substantially simplified expression for this integral respecting high accuracy of an approximation.

Effect of dense slurry composition on its flow behaviour in horizontal pipe
Vlasák, Pavel; Chára, Zdeněk
2010 - English
The paper deals with experimental investigation of the dense fine-grained slurries focused on the slurry pressure drops versus average velocity relationship. The content of fine, especially colloidal solid particles evokes a complex non-Newtonian behaviour of the slurry. Flow behaviour of dense slurry depends on particle size distribution, shape, density and chemical composition of the solid phase as well as on concentration of solids and carrier liquid properties. The re-circulation pipe loop with horizontal hydraulically smooth stainless steel pipes was used for measuring the slurry flow parameters. Different slurries containing kaolin, stony dust or sand conveyed in water were measured to document effect of the size distribution and chemical composition on the slurry flow behaviour.

On behaviour of PVB solutions in electrospinning
Švrčinová, Petra; Lubasová, D.; Filip, Petr; Martinová, L.
2010 - English
Electrospinning produces nanofibre sheets from polymer solutions under high electric field. Rheological properties of these solutions play a substantial role in a nanofibre formation simultaneously with properties of polymers and solvents applied. This contribution aims at a determination of dependence of shear viscosity of polyvinylbuthyral (PVB) on the intensity of electric field to which PVB solutions are exposed. PVB was dissolved consecutively in a series of solvents as 10% wt. solution. It was found that the viscosity ratio (viscosity of a solution in presence of electric field/viscosity of a solution in absence of electric field) depends on the polarity of solvent. This pre-determines the possibility of application of the individual solvents for the process of electrospinning.

Transition from the saltation mode of bed load transport to the rolling mode
Lukerchenko, Nikolay; Ivanova, Irina; Chára, Zdeněk; Vlasák, Pavel
2009 - English
The paper deals with the sediment transport of sand particles conveyed by water in an open channel. A 3D numerical model developed by the authors was used for simulation of the sand particles movement in the channel with rough bed. Similarly to Shields theory of sediment transport incipient motion of the bed load particles the shear stress for the transition process from saltation mode to rolling mode can be defined. The shear stress value can be determined as a function of two dimensionless parameters, particle parameter and equivalent bed roughness. The particle parameter is a function of the particle size and density, and the carrier liquid density and viscosity. The presented numerical solution reveals that the shear stress for the transition process from saltation mode to rolling mode is less than the shear stress for the incipient sediment motion and depends on channel bed roughness. Příspěvek se zabývá sedimentačním pohybem písčitých částic unášených vodou podél dna otevřeného koryta. Pro simulaci pohybu částice v kanále s drsným dnem byl použit 3D model vyvinutý autory. Podmínky změny saltačního pohybu částice na rotační (valivý) podél dna koryta byly určeny obdobně jako podle Shieldsova teorému. Hodnota smykového napětí byla určena jako funkce dvou bezrozměrných parametrů, bezrozměrného průměru částice, který je funkcí velikosti a hustoty částice a hustoty a viskozity vody, a ekvivalentní drsnosti dna. Provedené numerické řešení potvrdilo, že smykové napětí pro přechod ze saltačního do rotačního pohybu je menší než smykové napětí pro počátek pohybu sedimentující částice a je závislé na drsnosti dna koryta.

Švrčinová, Petra; Kharlamov, Alexander; Filip, Petr
2009 - English
This contribution aims at the measurements of elongation viscosity for polyethylene materials. The approach is analysed from the viewpoint of possible degradation of materials tested and the emphasis is paid to admissible acceleration of the whole measuring process. There is presented a hint how to simplify (and accelerate) the measurements for a suitable class of materials.

Flow behaviour of highly concentrated slurries
Vlasák, Pavel; Chára, Zdeněk
2009 - English
The paper describes results of experimental investigation of the highly concentrated fine-grained slurry. The flow behaviour of the slurry was experimentally investigated for the laminar and turbulent regimes with respect to the effect of solid concentration and flow velocity. The re-circulation pipe loop with smooth stainless steel pipe of the inner diameter D = 17.5 mm was used. Stony dust from Mistrovice quarry (d50 = 8 μm, ρs = 2 701 kg/m3) was used as a solid phase, water was used as a carrier liquid. Volumetric concentration and slurry velocity reached up to 44% and 6 m/s, respectively. Příspěvek se zabývá experimentálním výzkumem vysoce koncentrovaných jemnozrnných suspenzí složených z kamenného prachu z lomu Mistrovice (d50 = 8 μm, ρs = 2 701 kg/m3) a vody. Objemová koncentrace pevné fáze dosahovala hodnot až 44%, rychlost proudění až 6 m/s. Tokové chování těchto suspenzí bylo zkoumáno na recirkulační experimentální trase s hladkým nerezovým potrubím o vnitřním průměru D = 17,5 mm pro laminární i turbulentní režim s ohledem na vliv koncentrace pevné fáze a rychlosti proudění.

A remark to the reptation theory
Kharlamov, Alexander; Filip, Petr; Švrčinová, Petra
2009 - English
Avoiding the Independent Alignment (IA) approximation in the classical Doi-Edwards model causes the computation extremely time and hardware consuming. Nevertheless some flow situations cannot be modelled with the IA approximation. This contribution presents a probabilistic approach not taking into account the IA approximation. Neuvažování IA aproximace v klasickém Doi-Edwardsově modelu způsobuje značné výpočetní potíže, nicméně některé tokové situace nemohou být modelovány pomocí této aproximace, kterou také nově presentovaný přístup nebere v potaz.

Determination of flow rate of viscoplastic fluids in annuli using an additive method
Filip, Petr; David, Jiří
2009 - English
An additive method enabling a direct determination of axial flow rate for viscous (power-law model) and viscoplastic (Vočadlo model) fluids in concentric annuli is presented. Flow rate through the actual concentric annulus is possible to express as a sum of axial flow rates through individual partial concentric annuli forming the whole annulus. The resulting relation for axial flow rate is possible to express in analytical forms without necessity of otherwise complicated derivations. The only numerical calculation consists in a determination of location of a zero shear stress for the original whole concentric annulus. Je presentována aditivní metoda umožňující přímé určení axiálního objemového průtoku v koncentrickém mezikruží pro kapalinu, jejíž chování lze popsat mocninovým či Vočadlovým modelem. Je ukázáno, že průtok lze vyjádřit jako součet dílčích průtoků jednotlivými mezikružími tvořícími v součtu původní celé mezikruží.
