Shear induced phase transitions in simple fluids

  • 1. National Bureau of Standards, Boulder, CO (USA). Thermophysical Properties Div.

Description

Computer simulation indicates that the pressure of a fluid under shear is a function of the strain rate. The phase diagram will be dependent on the shear and, in particular the critical point will be shifted. The effect is shown quantitatively for a Lennard-Jones fluid. (orig.)
