Asymptotics and numerics for non-Newtonian jet dynamics
Abstract
This work deals with the modeling and simulation of non-Newtonian jet dynamics. Proceeding from a 3d boundary value problem of upper-convected Maxwell equations, a 1d viscoelastic string model can be derived asymptotically. The resulting system of PDEs has a hyperbolic-elliptic character with an additional differential constraint. Its applicability regime is limited depending on physical parameters and boundary conditions. Numerical results are shown for gravitational in-/outflow set-ups.
