Shear viscosity of simple fluids in porous media: molecular dynamic simulations and correlation models
Equilibrium molecular dynamic simulations have been used to calculate the shear viscosity of liquid argon in macrovolume system and in porous media at different temperatures. densities and pore widths. On the other hand, based on the Chapman-Enskog theory and Heyes relationships, two correlation models which can describe the viscosity of simple liquids in porous media are proposed as a function of the reduced temperature, density and pore width. The validity of the models is evaluated by comparing the calculated viscosity to simulation data.
