Simulation of fluid slip at 3D hydrophobic microchannel walls by the lattice Boltzmann meth(9)

Fluid slip along hydrophobic microchannel walls has been observed experimentally by Tretheway and Meinhart [Phys. Fluids, 14 (3) (2002) L9]. In this paper, we show how fluid slip can be modeled by the lattice Boltzmann method and investigate a proposed mec

WiththesinglephaselatticeBoltzmannmethod(D3Q19model),wesimulatedthe owofwaterina3Dmicrochannelwithhydrophilic/hydrophobicwalls.Theclassicbounce-backschemewasusedtomodelthehydrophilicwalls,whileacombinationofbounce-backandspecularre ectionwasappliedtomodelthepartialslipboundaryconditionatthehydrophobicwalls.Goodquantitativeagreementwasobservedbe-tweenthesimulationsandpreviousexperimentalresults.Inthecaseofhydrophilicwalls,thesimulationresultagreesalmostexactlywiththeanalyticsolution.Inthecaseofhydrophobicwalls,a10%slipwasattainedbyassigningtheprobabilityofbounce-backto0.03andtheprobabilityofre ectionto0.97.ThevalueofqisconsistentwithSucciÕswork[55].Thisseemstoindicatethatpartial uidslipgeneratedbyhydrophobicitymaybemodeledbyacombinationofbounce-backandspecularre ection.However,itremainstobefurtherveri edwhetherthecombinationschemecanaccuratelycapturetheslipmotioncausedbyhydrophobicity.See[55]fordetails.
