Two-phase binary fluids and immiscible fluids described by an order parameter

  • 19 June 1995
Abstract
A unified framework for coupled Navier-Stokes/Cahn-Hilliard equations is developed using, as a basis, a balance law for microforces in conjunction with constitutive equations consistent with a mechanical version of the second law. As a numerical application of the theory, we consider the kinetics of coarsening for a binary fluid in two space-dimensions.
