Abstract

Multicomponent, Multiphase (MCMP) LBM is shown at the bottom right corner of the chart in Figure 38. Multiple chemical components (two for our purposes) such as oil and water are combined with interaction forces between them to yield immiscible fluids. The nature of the interaction forces is repulsive, which is opposite to the attractive forces that bring about van der Waals-like phase separation in SCMP; in MCMP, the phase separation can be thought of as a hydrophobic interaction.
