SIMULATION OF A PERFECT DIELECTRIC DROP IN ELECTRO-OSMOTIC FLOW OF AN ELECTROLYTE THROUGH A MICROCHANNEL

This research uses a computational fluid dynamic model to simulate motion and deformation of a dielectric drop in electrolyte solution in a microchannel. Wall charge density, the Debye-Hückel parameter and the Weber number are varied for uncharged, positively and negatively charged drop interfaces....
