Abstract

A constitutive equation for polymer solutions and melts is obtained on the basis of the dynamics of noninteracting dumbbells moving in a nonlinear anisotropic fluid. The equation obtained is used to describe nonlinear effects under conditions of simple shear and steady-state flow in a circular tube and for the numerical investigation of a flow in a finite cylinder with a rotating end face.
