Phase separation of incompressible binary fluids with Lattice Boltzmann Methods
We introduce new versions of lattice Boltzmann methods (LBM) for incompressible binary mixtures where fluctuations of total density are inhibited. As a test for the improved algorithms we consider the problem of phase separation of two-dimensional binary mixtures quenched from a disordered state into the coexistence region. We find that the stability properties of LBM are greatly improved. The ...
متن کاملSimulations of amphiphilic fluids using mesoscale lattice-Boltzmann and lattice-gas methods
We compare two recently developed mesoscale models of binary immiscible and ternary amphiphilic fluids. We describe and compare the algorithms in detail and discuss their stability properties. The simulation results for the cases of self-assembly of ternary droplet phases and binary water-amphiphile sponge phases are compared and discussed. Both models require parallel implementation and deploy...
متن کاملFluctuating lattice-Boltzmann model for complex fluids.
We develop and test numerically a lattice-Boltzmann (LB) model for nonideal fluids that incorporates thermal fluctuations. The fluid model is a momentum-conserving thermostat, for which we demonstrate how the temperature can be made equal at all length scales present in the system by having noise both locally in the stress tensor and by shaking the whole system in accord with the local temperat...
متن کاملLattice Boltzmann method for viscoelastic fluids.
A lattice Boltzmann model for viscoelastic flow simulation is proposed. Elastic effects are taken into account within the framework of a Maxwell model. To test the approach, we estimate the transverse velocity autocorrelation function for a freely evolving system, and find clear manifestations of shear at large frequencies. We then characterize boundary-driven shear waves, and the resonant enha...
متن کاملLattice Boltzmann Models for Complex Fluids
We present various Lattice Boltzmann Models which reproduce the effects of rough walls, shear thinning and granular flow. We examine the boundary layers generated by the roughness of the walls. Shear thinning produces plug flow with a sharp density contrast at the boundaries. Density waves are spontaneously generated when the viscosity has a nonlinear dependence on density which characterizes g...
