A phase-field approach is presented for the numerical simulation of two-phase forced flow in channels. The difference in physical properties of the two components is handled following a quasi-incompressible approach (Lowengrub and Truskinovsky [16]). The axisymmetric form of the Navier − Stokes and Cahn − Hilliard equations system is solved for a narrow pipe of radius R = 1 mm, where buoyancy effects are neglected. Results of three simulations for the evolution of spherical and elongated bubbles are reported.

Abstract
A phase-field approach is presented for the numerical simulation of two-phase forced flow in channels. The difference in physical properties of the two components is handled following a quasi-incompressible approach (Lowengrub and Truskinovsky [16]). The axisymmetric form of the Navier − Stokes and Cahn − Hilliard equations system is solved for a narrow pipe of radius R = 1 mm, where buoyancy effects are neglected. Results of three simulations for the evolution of spherical and elongated bubbles are reported.Pubblicazioni consigliate
