The Sharp Interface Limit of a Phase Field Model for Moving Contact Line Problem

چکیده
Abstract. Using method of matched asymptotic expansions, we derive the sharp interface limit for the diffusive interface model with the generalized Navier boundary condition recently proposed by Qian, Wang and Sheng in [9, 11] for the moving contact line problem. We show that the leading order problem satisfies a boundary value problem for a coupled Hale-Shaw and Navier-Stokes equations with the interface being a free boundary, and the leading order dynamic contact angle is the same as the static one satisfying the Young’s equation.

On the moving contact line singularity: asymptotics of a diffuse-interface model.
The behaviour of a solid-liquid-gas system near the three-phase contact line is considered using a diffuse-interface model with no-slip at the solid and where the fluid phase is specified by a continuous density field. Relaxation of the classical approach of a sharp liquid-gas interface and careful examination of the asymptotic behaviour as the contact line is approached is shown to resolve the...
متن کاملA preconditioned solver for sharp resolution of multiphase flows at all Mach numbers
A preconditioned five-equation two-phase model coupled with an interface sharpening technique is introduced for simulation of a wide range of multiphase flows with both high and low Mach regimes. Harten-Lax-van Leer-Contact (HLLC) Riemann solver is implemented for solving the discretized equations while tangent of hyperbola for interface capturing (THINC) interface sharpening method is applied ...
متن کاملA Phase-field Model for Solid-state Dewetting and Its Sharp-interface Limit
We propose a phase field model for solid state dewetting where the surface energy is weakly anisotropic. The evolution is based on the Cahn-Hilliard equation with degenerate mobility and a free boundary condition at the film-substrate contact line. We derive the corresponding sharp interface limit via matched asymptotic analysis involving multiple inner layers. The resulting sharp interface mod...
متن کاملA variational approach to moving contact line hydrodynamics
In immiscible two-phase flows, the contact line denotes the intersection of the fluid– fluid interface with the solid wall. When one fluid displaces the other, the contact line moves along the wall. A classical problem in continuum hydrodynamics is the incompatibility between the moving contact line and the no-slip boundary condition, as the latter leads to a non-integrable singularity. The rec...
متن کاملNonlocal diffuse interface theory of thin films and the moving contact line.
A nonlocal diffuse interface model is explored using the "lubrication approximation" applicable to thin films. We show the inconsistency of the expansion leading to a nonlinear diffusion model, and solve an untruncated integro-differential mean field equation to compute the equilibrium density profile across the fluid-vapor interface. The disjoining potential and effect of interfacial curvature...
