Modeling the flow of fluid/particle mixtures in microchannels: encapsulating nanoparticles within monodisperse droplets.
We develop a hybrid computational approach for simulating mixtures of binary fluids and mobile, submicron particles. The model couples a lattice Boltzmann method for the binary fluid with a Brownian dynamics model for the particles. The particles can exhibit preferential wetting interactions with th...
