Slug Self-Propulsion in a Capillary Tube Mathematical Modeling and Numerical Simulation

A composite droplet made of two miscible fluids in a narrow tube generally moves under the action of capillarity until complete mixture is attained. This physical situation is analysed here on a combined theoretical and numerical analysis. The mathematical framework consists of the two-phase flow ph...
