Elastic Turbulence
Author(s): Shaik Feroz*
A viscous solvent streamline flow is changed by the addition of a small quantity of long compound molecules, leading to a chaotic flow known as elastic turbulence (ET). ET is attributed to compound stretching, that generates elastic stress and its back reaction on the flow. Its properties area unit analogous to those ascertained in fluid mechanics turbulence, though the formal similarity doesn't imply a similarity in physical mechanisms underlining these two sorts of random motion. Here we have a tendency to review the applied mathematics and spectral properties and also the spacial structure of the rate field, the applied mathematics and spectral properties of pressure fluctuations, and scaling of the friction issue of ET in wall-bounded and boundless flow geometries, as ascertained in experiments and numerical simulations and delineate by theory for a good vary of management paramet..
