We present a systematic study of capillary filling for a binary fluid by using mesoscopic a lattice Boltzmann model describing a diffusive interface moving at a given contact angle with respect to the walls. We compare the numerical results at changing the ratio the typical size of the capillary, H, and the wettability of walls. Numerical results yield quantitative agreement with the Washburn law in all cases, provided the channel lenght is sufficiently larger then the interface width. We also show that in the initial stage of the filling process, transient behaviour induced by inertial effects are under control in our lattice Boltzmann equation and in good agreement with the phenomenology of capillary filling. Finally, at variance with multiphase LB simulations, velocity and pressure profiles evolve under the sole effect of capillary drive all along the channel.
We present a systematic study of capillary filling for multi-phase flows by using mesoscopic lattice Boltzmann models describing a diffusive interface moving at a given contact angle with respect to the walls. We compare the numerical results at chan
Numerical simulations of two-dimensional capillary filling using the pseudo-potential lattice Boltzmann model for multiphase fluids are presented, with special emphasis on the role of finite-vapour density effects. It is shown that whenever the densi
We present a lattice Boltzmann algorithm based on an underlying free energy that allows the simulation of the dynamics of a multicomponent system with an arbitrary number of components. The thermodynamic properties, such as the chemical potential of
A lattice Boltzmann model for amphiphilic fluid dynamics is presented. It is a ternary model, in that it conserves mass separately for each chemical species present (water, oil, amphiphile), and it maintains an orientational degree of freedom for the
We show how the capillary filling of microchannels is affected by posts or ridges on the sides of the channels. Ridges perpendicular to the flow direction introduce contact line pinning which slows, or sometimes prevents, filling; whereas ridges para
