A Review on Transport Phenomena of Entangled Polymeric Liquids

抄録

This review article focuses on the transport phenomena of entangled polymeric liquids. The study of transport phenomena is one of the fundamental fields in chemical engineering, which addresses the transport of mass, momentum, and energy. For simple transport cases, such as the flow of a Newtonian fluid, the methodology of transport phenomena has been established. However, for an entangled polymeric liquid, which is an example of a viscoelastic liquid, various problems remain due to the various time and length scales involved. In this review article, we summarize studies of entangled polymeric liquids for problems on different time and length scales and multiscale problems that connect different scales.
