Squeeze flow of a Maxwell fluid between two parallel disks or two spheres

In this study, we investigated the squeeze flow of an upper convected Maxwell fluid between two rigid disks or spheres. It has been proved that the velocity field of the Maxwell squeeze flow between two disks is similar to Newtonian at low Deborah numbers. Based on the Newtonian fluid velocity field...

Zusammenfassung:In this study, we investigated the squeeze flow of an upper convected Maxwell fluid between two rigid disks or spheres. It has been proved that the velocity field of the Maxwell squeeze flow between two disks is similar to Newtonian at low Deborah numbers. Based on the Newtonian fluid velocity field, we analyze the pressure distribution between two parallel disks and develop a theoretical model of normal squeeze force. We also use the same method to analyze the interaction between two nearly contacting, arbitrary rigid spheres. We obtained the analytical expression of the pressure distribution and normal squeeze force, which can be implemented into the contact model for the discrete element simulation of a wet particle system with the Maxwell fluid.
