Entropy Scaling of Viscosity - II: Predictive Scheme for Normal Alkanes.

ABSTRACT: In this work, a residual entropy value 6/10 of the way between the critical point and a value of -2/3 of Boltzmann's constant is shown to collapse the scaled viscosity for the family of normal alkanes. Based on this approach, a nearly universal correlation is proposed that can reproduce 95% of the experimental data for normal alkanes within ±18% (without removal of clearly erroneous data). This universal correlation has no new fluid-specific empirical parameters and is based on experimentally accessible values. This collapse is shown to be valid to a residual entropy half way between the critical point and the triple point, beyond which the macroscopically-scaled viscosity has a super-exponential dependence on residual entropy, terminating at the triple point. A key outcome of this study is a better understanding of entropy scaling for fluids with intramolecular degrees of freedom. A study of the transport and thermodynamic properties at the triple point rounds out the analysis.

Entropy Scaling of Viscosity - I: A Case Study of Propane.

Project description:In this work, a broadly-applicable and simple approach for building high accuracy viscosity correlations is demonstrated for propane. The approach is based on the combination of a number of recent insights related to the use of residual entropy scaling, especially a new way of scaling the viscosity for consistency with the dilute-gas limit. With three adjustable parameters in the dense phase, the primary viscosity data for propane are predicted with a mean absolute relative deviation of 1.38%, and 95% of the primary data are predicted within a relative error band of less than 5%. The dimensionality of the dense-phase contribution is reduced from the conventional two dimensional approach (temperature and density) to a one-dimensional correlation with residual entropy as the independent variable. The simplicity of the model formulation ensures smooth extrapolation behavior (barring errors in the equation of state itself). The approach proposed here should be applicable to a wide range of chemical species. The supporting information includes the relevant data in tabular form and a Python implementation of the model.

Aviation Turbine Fuel Thermal Conductivity: A Predictive Approach Using Entropy Scaling-Guided Machine Learning with Experimental Validation.

Project description:Although typical aircraft fuel thermal management analysis relies upon temperature-dependent thermodynamic and transport properties of aviation turbine fuel, the variation in properties associated with compositional variation in fuels and the subsequent impacts on system performance are not well established. With this in mind, the present work aimed to develop a predictive model of aviation turbine fuel thermal conductivity which utilized only compositional (hydrocarbon) and state (temperature and pressure) inputs and had errors within the bounds of typical uncertainty of the associated test data (3%). A novel modeling approach was developed to predict thermal conductivity using pseudo-component entropy scaling techniques with a machine learning-developed intermediate step in the overall model. Simple hyper-parameter optimization techniques were developed to promote model stability, computational efficiency, and long-term repeatability of the novel architecture. Validation data were gathered which included four fuel samples (3 JP-5 and 1 F-24), which underwent two-dimensional gas chromatography compositional testing and temperature-dependent density, viscosity, thermal conductivity, and specific heat testing. Model performance on the validation data set assembled from the literature data and present efforts showed an average deviation of 1% and an absolute average deviation of 2.5%. Model outputs outside the validation range are well-behaved and are expected to perform well on a large range of liquid hydrocarbon mixtures with the overall process expected to be well suited to prediction of other properties.

Entropy-scaling search of massive biological data.

Project description:Many data sets exhibit well-defined structure that can be exploited to design faster search tools, but it is not always clear when such acceleration is possible. Here we introduce a framework for similarity search based on characterizing a data set's entropy and fractal dimension. We prove that searching scales in time with metric entropy (number of covering hyperspheres), if the fractal dimension of the data set is low, and scales in space with the sum of metric entropy and information-theoretic entropy (randomness of the data). Using these ideas, we present accelerated versions of standard tools, with no loss in specificity and little loss in sensitivity, for use in three domains-high-throughput drug screening (Ammolite, 150x speedup), metagenomics (MICA, 3.5x speedup of DIAMOND (3700x BLASTX)), and protein structure search (esFragBag, 10x speedup of FragBag). Our framework can be used to achieve 'compressive omics,' and the general theory can be readily applied to data science problems outside of biology. Source code: http://gems.csail.mit.edu.

Excess-entropy scaling in supercooled binary mixtures.

Project description:Transport coefficients, such as viscosity or diffusion coefficient, show significant dependence on density or temperature near the glass transition. Although several theories have been proposed for explaining this dynamical slowdown, the origin remains to date elusive. We apply here an excess-entropy scaling strategy using molecular dynamics computer simulations and find a quasiuniversal, almost composition-independent, relation for binary mixtures, extending eight orders of magnitude in viscosity or diffusion coefficient. Metallic alloys are also well captured by this relation. The excess-entropy scaling predicts a quasiuniversal breakdown of the Stokes-Einstein relation between viscosity and diffusion coefficient in the supercooled regime. Additionally, we find evidence that quasiuniversality extends beyond binary mixtures, and that the origin is difficult to explain using existing arguments for single-component quasiuniversality.

Scaling Law for Irreversible Entropy Production in Critical Systems.

Project description:We examine the Jarzynski equality for a quenching process across the critical point of second-order phase transitions, where absolute irreversibility and the effect of finite-sampling of the initial equilibrium distribution arise in a single setup with equal significance. We consider the Ising model as a prototypical example for spontaneous symmetry breaking and take into account the finite sampling issue by introducing a tolerance parameter. The initially ordered spins become disordered by quenching the ferromagnetic coupling constant. For a sudden quench, the deviation from the Jarzynski equality evaluated from the ideal ensemble average could, in principle, depend on the reduced coupling constant ε0 of the initial state and the system size L. We find that, instead of depending on ε0 and L separately, this deviation exhibits a scaling behavior through a universal combination of ε0 and L for a given tolerance parameter, inherited from the critical scaling laws of second-order phase transitions. A similar scaling law can be obtained for the finite-speed quench as well within the Kibble-Zurek mechanism.

Excess Entropy Scaling Law for Diffusivity in Liquid Metals.

Project description:Understanding how dynamic properties depend on the structure and thermodynamics in liquids is a long-standing open problem in condensed matter physics. A very simple approach is based on the Dzugutov contribution developed on model fluids in which a universal (i.e. species-independent) connection relates the pair excess entropy of a liquid to its reduced diffusion coefficient. However its application to "real" liquids still remains uncertain due to the ability of a hard sphere (HS) reference fluid used in reducing parameters to describe complex interactions that occur in these liquids. Here we use ab initio molecular dynamics simulations to calculate both structural and dynamic properties at different temperatures for a wide series of liquid metals including Al, Au, Cu, Li, Ni, Ta, Ti, Zn as well as liquid Si and B. From this analysis, we demonstrate that the Dzugutov scheme can be applied successfully if a self-consistent method to determine the packing fraction of the hard sphere reference fluid is used as well as the Carnahan-Starling approach to express the excess entropy.

Scaling relationships for the elastic moduli and viscosity of mixed lipid membranes.

Project description:The elastic and viscous properties of biological membranes play a vital role in controlling cell functions that require local reorganization of the membrane components as well as dramatic shape changes such as endocytosis, vesicular trafficking, and cell division. These properties are widely acknowledged to depend on the unique composition of lipids within the membrane, yet the effects of lipid mixing on the membrane biophysical properties remain poorly understood. Here, we present a comprehensive characterization of the structural, elastic, and viscous properties of fluid membranes composed of binary mixtures of lipids with different tail lengths. We show that the mixed lipid membrane properties are not simply additive quantities of the single-component analogs. Instead, the mixed membranes are more dynamic than either of their constituents, quantified as a decrease in their bending modulus, area compressibility modulus, and viscosity. While the enhanced dynamics are seemingly unexpected, we show that the measured moduli and viscosity for both the mixed and single-component bilayers all scale with the area per lipid and collapse onto respective master curves. This scaling links the increase in dynamics to mixing-induced changes in the lipid packing and membrane structure. More importantly, the results show that the membrane properties can be manipulated through lipid composition the same way bimodal blends of surfactants, liquid crystals, and polymers are used to engineer the mechanical properties of soft materials, with broad implications for understanding how lipid diversity relates to biomembrane function.

Scaling laws for lattice distortions: Application to high entropy alloys.

Project description:Lattice distortions are intrinsic features of all solid solution alloys associated with varying atomic radii; this phenomenon facilitates the formation of single-phase solid solutions. Using high-entropy alloys (HEAs), as an example, we investigate the influence of variations in inter-atomic separations for stabilizing and controlling their structural, mechanical, and thermodynamic properties. This is done through a combination of statistical mechanics analysis and molecular dynamics simulations on simplified 2D systems, as well as a 3D crystals with harmonic and anharmonic inter-atomic bonds with varying natural inter-atomic separations. We demonstrate that the impact of this inter-atomic length disorder (representing static lattice distortion) and temperature fluctuations (representing dynamic lattice distortion) on fundamental and universal thermodynamic, structural, and elastic characteristics are similar and can be unified through effective temperature; i.e. a scaling law for HEAs that establishes a relationship between these factors. This scaling law reveals that different HEAs (i.e. varying degrees of local lattice distortions) collapse onto a single curve when plotted against the effective temperature. We demonstrate that lattice distortion significantly enhances the stability of solid solution alloys (relative to phase separation or ordering by effectively increasing the temperature of the system; this stabilization effect is particularly pronounced in HEAs).

Nonlinear scaling of surface water diffusion with bulk water viscosity of crowded solutions.

Project description:The translational hydration dynamics within 0.5-1.5 nm of the surface of a DPPC liposome, a model biomacromolecular surface, is analyzed by the recently developed Overhauser dynamic nuclear polarization (ODNP) technique. We find that dramatic changes to the bulk solvent cause only weak changes in the surface hydration dynamics. Specifically, both a >10-fold increase in bulk viscosity and the restriction of diffusion by confinement on a multiple nm length-scale change the local translational diffusion coefficient of the surface water surrounding the lipid bilayer by <2.5-fold. By contrast, previous ODNP studies have shown that changes to the biomacromolecular surface induced by folding, binding, or aggregation can cause local hydration dynamics to vary by factors of up to 30. We suggest that the surface topology and chemistry at the ≤1.5 nm scale, rather than the characteristics of the solvent, nearly exclusively determine the macromolecule's surface hydration dynamics.
