Summary
In this paper an expression for the particle stress tensor of a suspension of drops in an electric field is given. It shows that the particle stress tensor of a suspension of drops in an electric field depends on the intensity of the applied electric field, dielectric constants, viscosity coefficients and conductivity coefficients of liquids inside and outside the drop. It also denotes that a suspension of drops in an electric field must be taken into account as a non-Newtonian fluid.
Résumé
Dans le présent travail on donne une expression pour le tenseur des tensions des particules d'une suspension de gouttes de liquide dans un champ électrique. Elle montre que le tenseur des tensions des particules d'une suspension de gouttes de liquide dans un champ électrique dépend de l'intensité du champ électrique appliqué, des constantes diélectriques, des coefficients des viscosités et des coefficients des conductivités des liquides à l'intérieur et à l'extérieur de la goutte. Elle montre que la suspension des gouttes de liquide dans un champ électrique doit être considérée comme un fluide non newtonien.
