During the last few years, a number of numerical boundary condition schemes have been used to study various aspects of the no-slip wall condition using the lattice Boltzmann method. In this paper, a modified boundary condition method is employed to simulate the no-slip wall condition in the presence of the body force term near the wall. These conditions are based on the idea of the bounce-back ...

The no-slip boundary condition, i.e., zero fluid velocity relative to the solid at the fluid-solid interface, has been very successful in describing many macroscopic flows. A problem of principle arises when the no-slip boundary condition is used to model the hydrodynamics of immiscible-fluid displacement in the vicinity of the moving contact line, where the interface separating two immiscible ...

We consider pressure-driven flows of electrolyte solutions in small channels or capillaries in which tracer particles are used to probe velocity profiles. Under the assumption that the double layer is thin compared to the channel dimensions, we show that the flow-induced streaming electric field can create an apparent slip velocity for the motion of the particles, even if the flow velocity stil...

The importance of the slip flow over the no-slip condition is widely accepted in microscopic scaled domains with the direct impact on microfluidic and nanofluidic systems. The popular Navier Stoke’s (N-S) flow model is largely utilized with the slip flow phenomenon. In the present study, the finite integral transform scheme along with the shift of variables is implemented to solve the equation ...

The various industrial, biological and engineering applications of flow of squeezing flow of fluid between parallel plates have been the impetus for the continued interest and generation renewed interests on the subject. As a part of the renewed interests, this paper presents the study of axisymmetric magnetohydrodynamic squeezing flow of nanofluid in porous media under the influence of slip bo...

because of its kinetic nature and computational advantages, the lattice boltzmann method (lbm) has been well accepted as a useful tool to simulate micro-scale flows. the slip boundary model plays a crucial role in the accuracy of solutions for micro-channel flow simulations. the most used slip boundary condition is the maxwell slip model. the results of maxwell slip model are affected by the ac...

Motivated by experimental evidence of violations of the no-slip boundary condition for liquid flow in micrometer-scale geometries, we propose a simple, complementary experimental technique that has certain advantages over previous studies. Instead of relying on externally induced flow or probe motion, we suggest that colloidal diffusivity near solid surfaces contains signatures of the degree of...

Physisorbed surfactant can change the hydrodynamic boundary condition of oil flow from “stick” to “partial slip”, provided that the shear stress on the wall exceeds a threshold level that decreases with increasing surface coverage of surfactant. To demonstrate this, Newtonian alkane fluids (octane, dodecane, tetradecane) were placed between molecularly smooth surfaces that were either wetting (...

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...

Formulation of locally conservative least-squares finite element methods (LSFEM) for the Stokes equations with the no-slip boundary condition has been a long standing problem. Existing LSFEMs that yield exactly divergence free velocities require nonstandard boundary conditions [3], while methods that admit the no-slip condition satisfy the incompressibility equation only approximately [4, Chapt...
