Surface tension coefficient and thickness measurements in planar soap-film flows

  • 摘要: 在流体力学实验中,平面流动皂膜得到大量应用(如用于模拟两维湍流流动或超声速流动),对皂膜的测量手段也得到了极大发展,但对流动皂膜特性参数的测量尚有可提高之处。本文给出了两根平行弹性线之间在重力驱动下稳定流动的皂膜的表面张力系数及厚度的非接触测量实例。对于表面张力系数测量,针对新近文献中提出的一种基于皂膜边缘的力平衡测量表面张力系数的半经验方法给出了严格推导,并采用两种方法验证了推导结论,证实了该半经验方法的正确性,同时还得出了一种新的、更简便的表面张力系数测量方法;对于皂膜厚度测量,结合传统的皂膜流动速度测量方法(如粒子图像测速法),提出了一种基于单色激光干涉的测量方法,可以通过普通单色相机摄像来获取稳定流动皂膜的厚度剖面。
    Abstract: Steady planar soap-film flows have been used widely in experimental investigations of fluid mechanics, e.g., as models for two-dimensional flows or supersonic flows. Despite the significant advances in the measurement techniques for soap films over the years, there is still room for improvement, especially for flowing soap films. Here we present two developments in measuring the surface tension coefficient and the film thickness of flowing soap films. For a vertically flowing soap film between two elastic wires, based on the force balance of the boundary wires, we derived an exact solution for the curve shape of the boundary wires. We verified our solution by direct measurement of the wire shape in our flowing soap film. Our exact solution thus provides support to a recently proposed semi-empirical method. Moreover, based on our solution, we proposed a new, easy-to-implement method for measuring the surface tension coefficient of flowing soap films. For film thickness measurement, we proposed a new method based on the interference of the incident light with a single-wavelength. When coupled with a conventional vertical velocity profile measurement, such as particle image velocimetry (PIV), the interference method can provide the film thickness profile using a single monochrome camera.
