Abstract: | We present a systematic study of capillary filling for a binary fluid by using mesoscopic a lattice Boltzmann model describing
a diffusive interface moving at a given contact angle with respect to the walls. We compare the numerical results at changing
the ratio the typical size of the capillary, H, and the wettability of walls. Numerical results yield quantitative agreement with the theoretical Washburn law, provided
that the channel height is sufficiently larger than the interface width and variations of the dynamic contact angle with the
capillary number are taken into account. |
