Axisymmetric Low-Reynolds Motion of Drops Through Circular Microchannels

Abstract: Flow constituted by drops appears in a wide range of natural, biological and engineering situations. For example, liquid-liquid two phase flow inside capillaries constitutes a model commonly used to represent fluid flow in a petroleum reservoir. The typical modeling approach considers inertial forces negligible in comparison to viscous forces, allowing the use of Stokes equation to study flow dynamics. Very few numerical simulations have been made considering inertial effects. In this project, the flow of a pe… Show more
