Numerical Studies of Liquid-Liquid Segmented Flows in Square Microchannels Using a Front-Tracking Algorithm

Liquid-liquid segmented flows in a square microchannel are investigated numerically using a hybrid front-tracking/front-capturing method. The code is found to be well-adapted to a large range of flow parameters, but droplet flows are limited by poor accuracy at Laplace number above 100 1000 and plug...
