Finite Reynolds number effects in fluid mixtures : an investigation using numerical simulation methods

The scaling theory of the spinodal decomposition of a symmetric binary fluid mixture in the inertial region has been reviewed, and extended by considering energy balance, as well as the momentum balance described by the Navier-Stokes equation (NSE). The prediction for the asymptotic growth rate of t...
