Article Description

Stress overshoot/undershoot is an important phenomenon in structured fluids undergoing dynamic and transient flow. To accurately capture the flow process, it is important to have a better understanding of and include in the numerical modeling the microstructure evolution that leads to the stress overshoot/undershoot phenomenon. We present a procedure for incorporating a microstructure model into a Lagrangian framework based on the smoothed particle hydrodynamics fluid solver. The numerical simulation is performed for a typical structured fluid under an applied strain rate history flow. Good agreement between the numerical results and the experimental data lends credence to and validates the proposed procedure for simulations of complex mixture flows. Additionally, the interaction between a flow of structured fluid and a circular cylinder placed in a channel is investigated. The viscous force is found to overshoot together with the applied gradient pressure and decrease over time as the fluid approaches the equilibrium state.
