Lattice kinetic theory as a form of supra-molecular dynamics for computational microfluidics

S. SUCCI, R.BENZI, L. BIFERALE, M. SBRAGAGLIA and F. TOSCHI
We present a review of recent technical developments in Lattice Boltzmann Equations, as applied to single-phase flows with and without slip lenghts at the wall and for multi-phase flows in presence of hydrophobic walls. The interplay between roughness and hydrophobicity is discussed for microfluidics application. The issue of finite Knudsen effects is also addressed.
