Microfluidic channels with asymmetric protrusions have been utilized previously to enhance mixing in the drops that travel through the channels. To study the flow pattern in the drops and help explain the mixing phenomenon, in this work an immersed-boundary method is developed to simulate dynamics of a drop in arbitrary channel geometries. In this method, the fluid–solid interface is handled by the...
A family of sharp-interface immersed boundary methods using the so-called “direct forcing” approach have been developed for a range of applications because of their simple formulation and relative ease in handling complex geometries. Numerical interpolations are typically adopted in these methods to approximate the flow variables at the grid points near the solid surface, which provides an implicit...
