Rod Climbing is not a subtle effect, as demonstrated on the cover by Ph.D. student Sylvana Garcia-Rodrigues from Columbia. Ms. Garcia-Rodrigues is studying rheology in the Mechanical Engineering Department at U. of Wisconsin-Madison, USA. The Apparatus shown was created by UWMadison Professors Emeriti John L. Schrag and Arthur S. Lodge. The fluid shown is a 2% aqueous polyacrylamide solution, and the rotational speed is nominally 0.5 Hz. Photo by Carlos Arango Sabogal (2006)
Example 2.3-1: Interpretation of Free Surface Shapes in the Rod-Climbing Experiment (N) (P) I. Phenomenological Interpretation: (F): For the Newtonian fluids the surface near the rod is slightly depressed and acts as a sensitive manometer for the smaller pressure near the rod generated by centrifugal force (P):The Polymeric fluids exhibit an extra tension along the streamlines, that is, in the “θ” direction. In terms of chemical structure, this extra tension arises from the stretching and alignment of the polymer molecules along the streamlines. The thermal motions make the polymer molecules act as small “rubber bands” wanting to snap back
