Flow of Polymer Solutions in Nansocale Slit Pores

POSTER

Abstract

We present results from extensive and systematic molecular dynamics simulations of semi-dilute and cocentrated polymer solutions in nanoscale slit pores. We will particulary report on the effects of the polymer concentration, molecular weight and flow rate on the profiles of the velocity field, polymer concentration, and radii of gyration of the polymer chains across the slit.
