N2 - This paper presents a stochastic simulation technique to the classic problem of the flow between parallel plates (Couette) for Newtonian and viscoelastic fluids. From the Cauchy equation, the total stress tensor splits up into two contributions, the viscous and polymeric (elastic) terms. An implicit finite difference scheme is used to solve the momentum equation (macro) and an explicit second order scheme is employed for the polymer (stochastic) contribution. The influence of important parameters such as the number of Hookean dumbbells, theWeissenberg number and the solvent/polymer viscosity ratio in both the velocity and shear stress tensor fields are analyzed.
