Lattice Boltzmann simulation for phase separation with chemical reaction controlled by ultrasound field
Heping Wang, Ying Lu
TL;DR
This paper studies how ultrasound affects phase separation in chemical reactions using a new simulation model.
Contribution
A novel model incorporating the density-dependent Arrhenius equation to simulate phase separation under ultrasonic control.
Findings
Ultrasonic frequency can slow or block chemical reactions during phase separation.
A criterion was established showing when chemical reactions or ultrasonic fields dominate phase separation.
Higher ultrasonic frequencies shorten phase preservation and accelerate phase merging.
Abstract
In this work, the phase separation behavior and pattern formation in binary fluids with chemical reactions controlled by ultrasonic radiation were systematically investigated. We incorporated the density-dependent Arrhenius equation into a novel and modified model for phase separation. The coupling effects of the pre-exponential factor K, density, and frequency on the phase separation under the condition of ultrasonic field-regulated chemical reactions were evaluated. 1) The rate of chemical reaction can be slowed down and even blocked by controlling the frequency of the ultrasonic field. 2)We have established a criterion for evaluating the competition between chemical reactions and the ultrasonic fields. When the value of pre-exponential factor K is greater than or equal to 10−4, phase separation is primarily regulated by the chemical reaction; otherwise, the ultrasonic field dominates…
