Implications of PEE
What happens to the energy equation if one does not assume PEE?
• First, the internal energy is taken as a function of temperature and an
appropriate internal structural variable (conformation tensor):
Uˆ Uˆ T , c
Uˆ
• Next, the heat capacity is defined as: cˆv
T c
Experimental Approach
• Identify a flow situation in which high degrees of orientation are
developed
Uniaxial elongational flow generated using the semi-hyperbolically converging
dies (Hencky dies)
The analysis is not possible in capillary shear flow
cˆv v T k 2T : v
The solution to this equation will yield the spatial temperature distribution profiles
inside the die channel
Compute the average temperature value for the exit axial cross-section of the die
• Under the same conditions used in the FEM calculations, measure the
temperature increase due to viscous heating

Theoretical Approach
Identify all the factors that may be responsible for the deviations
observed at high strain rates
Key assumptions made for the derivation of the temperature equation
used in the FEM analysis
DUˆ
• Started with the general heat equation q p v : v
Dt
Uˆ DUˆ
• Assumption 2: Flow is steady 0 and v Uˆ
t Dt
dUˆ T
• Assumption 3: Fluid is Purely Entropic Uˆ Uˆ T and cˆv
dT
• Obtained the temperature equation solved using FEM
Furthermore
• As a consequence of Assumption 3, the heat capacity is a
function of temperature only
• Assumption 4: the thermal conductivity is isotropic
• Assumption 5: the velocity flow field corresponds to uniaxial
elongational stretching (with full-slip boundary conditions)

Part III: Summary
Equilibrium simulations
• Revealed a non-linear dependence of K(T) with respect to
temperature
• Improved agreement with experiment in terms of the
characteristic ratio C∞ and temperature exponent B
Non-equilibrium simulations
• The changes in free energy and internal energy are of similar
magnitude
• The examination of the individual components of the internal
energy provided two useful insights
The elastic response of single chains is indeed purely entropic
The inter-molecular contribution to the internal energy of an ensemble of
chains (missing in the isolated chain case) is very important and
explains the trends observed during the experiments
