Simulation of high-viscosity-ratio multicomponent fluid flow using a pseudopotential model based on the nonorthogonal central-moments lattice Boltzmann method.

In this research, the development of a pseudopotential multicomponent model with the capability of simulating high-viscosity-ratio flows is discussed and examined. The proposed method is developed based on the non-orthogonal central moments model in the lattice Boltzmann method, and the exact difference model (EDM) is used to apply the intercomponent interaction force. In contrast to the original Shan-Chen model, in which the applying force has the viscosity-dependent error term, the error term of this model does not depend on the viscosity.
