摘要

Abstract

Stretching polymer in fluid flow is a vital process for studying and utilizing the physical properties of these molecules

such as DNA linearization in nanofluidic channels. We studied the role of hydrodynamic interactions (HIs) in stretching a free star polymer in Poiseuille flow through a tube using mesoscale hydrodynamic simulations. As increasing the flow strength

star polymers migrate toward the centerline of tube due to HIs

whereas toward the tube wall in the absence of HIs. By analyzing the end monomer distribution and the perturbed flow around the star polymer

we found that the polymer acts like a shield against the flow

leading to additional hydrodynamic drag forces that compress the arm chains in the front of the star center toward the tube axis and lift the arm chains at the back toward the tube wall. The balanced hydrodynamic forces freeze the polymer into a trumpet structure

where the arm chains maintain a steady strongly stretched state at high flow strength. In contrast

the polymer displays remarkably large conformational change when switching off HIs. Our simulation results explained the coupling between HIs and the structure of star polymers in Poiseuille flow.
