Korteweg (1901)• treated liquid/vapor interface as a continuum
• used Navier-Stokes equations plus tensor depending on density derivatives
• for miscible liquid, diffusion is slow enough that “a provisional equilibrium” could exist (everything in equilibrium except diffusion)– i.e., no buoyancy
• fluids would act like immiscible fluids

effect of temperature-dependent D
• k independent of T
• D increases 4 times across cell
• higher T means larger δ• effect is larger than k depending on T even
with viscosity 100 times larger

Effect of Conversion Gradient
• T also varies because polymer conversion and temperature are coupled through heat release of polymerization
• T affects k
• T affects D

Limitations of Model
• two-dimensional
• does not include chemical reaction
• neglects temperature difference between polymer and monomer– polymer will cool by conduction to monomer
and heat loss from reactor

Conclusions
• Modeling predicts that the three TIPMPS experiments will produce observable fluid flows and measurable distortions in the concentration fields.
• TIPMPS will be a first of its kind investigation that should establish a new field of microgravity materials science.

Quo Vademus?
• refine estimations of “k” using spinning drop tensiometry
• completely characterize the dependence of all parameters on T, C and molecular weight
• prepare 3D model that includes chemistry
• include volume changes
