Abstract: |
Parallel and Orthogonal Superposition experiments may be employed to probe a material’s non-linear rheological properties through the rate-dependent parallel and orthogonal superposition moduli, G∗ ∥(ω, γ˙ ) and G∗ ⊥(ω, γ˙ ), respectively. In a recent series of publications, we have considered the problem of interconversion between parallel and orthogonal superposition moduli as a means of probing flow induced anisotropy. However, as noted by Yamomoto in 1971 [Yamomoto, Trans. Soc. Rheol 15 (1971) 331-344]] superposition flows may be used to assess the ability of a particular constitutive model to describe the flow of complex fluids. Herein, we derive expressions for the superposition moduli of the Gordon-Schowalter (or Johnson-Segalman) fluid. This model contains, as special cases, the corotational Maxwell model, the upper (and lower) convected Maxwell models, the corotational Jeffreys model, and the Oldroyd-B model. We also consider the conditionsunder which the superposition moduli may take negative values before studying a specific, non shear banding, worm like micellular system of cetylpyridinium chloride and sodium salicylate. We find that, using a weakly non-linear analysis (in which the model parameters are rate independent) the Gordon-Schowalter/Johnson- Segalman (GS/JS) model is unable to describe the superposition moduli. However, by permitting strong non-linearity (allowing the GS/JS parameters to become shear rate dependent), the superposition moduli, at all rates studied, are described well by the model. Based on this strongly non-linear anlaysis, the shear rate dependency of the GS/JS ‘slip parameter’, a, suggests that the onset of shear thinning in the specific worm-like micellular system studied herein is driven by a combination of microstructural modification and a transition from rotation dominated (as in the corotational Jeffreys model) to shear dominated (as in the Oldroyd-B model) deformation of the microstructural elements. |
