2.2.2. Laws for viscosity and thermal conductivity Viscous effects in flows of dense gases have remained largely unexplored. One of the most important differences between dense gases and perfect gases is the downward curvature and nearly horizontal character of the isotherms in the neighborhood of the critical point and upper saturation curve in the p-v plane: the region of downward curvature of the isotherms is associated with the aforementioned reversed behavior of the sound speed in isentropic perturbations. In the same region, the specific heat at constant pressure, cp , can become quite large: this strongly influences the development of the thermal boundary layer and its coupling with the viscous boundary layer in high-speed flows. In the dense gas regime the dynamic viscosity μ and the thermal conductivity κ cannot be longer considered independent of the temperature and pressure, even in flows with relatively small temperature variations. On the other hand, the well-known Sutherland law, commonly used to represent viscosity variation with temperature, becomes invalid, as it is based on the hypothesis that the gas molecules act as non-interacting rigid spheres, and intermolecular forces are neglected. The complexity of the behavior of μ in the dense regime can be anticipated by recalling that the viscosity of liquids tends to decrease with increasing temperature, whereas that of gases tends to increase: the dense gas regime is a transition between these two qualitatively different behaviors. Similarly, the classical approximation of nearly constant Prandtl number ( Pr = μc p / k ≈ const ) cannot be used any more. As the thermal conductivity has roughly the same variation as viscosity with temperature and pressure, the behavior of Pr tends to be controlled by variations of cp. In regions where cp becomes large, strong variations of Pr can be observed, contrarily to what happens in perfect gases. Nevertheless, if the immediate vicinity of the thermodynamic critical point is excluded from considerations, the Prandtl number remains of order one, similar to perfect gases. In contrast, the Eckert number (Ec =U02 /(cpT0 ), where U0 and T0 refer to a suitable reference state) decreases significantly. Small flow Eckert number implies reduced sensitivity of the boundary layer to friction heating that remains negligible even at moderately large supersonic Mach numbers. Moreover, for flows past adiabatic walls the temperature, and thus also the density, is almost constant across the boundary layer. 37
