Fluid flow calculations of Graphene Composites

The flow of fluids through carbon nanotubes was investigated in order to get a better understanding of the unique properties and phenomena of nano-fluidics. The previous modeling and simulation efforts were based on diffusion of atoms or molecules that were thrown to the nanotubes with initial velocities. This talk has shed some light on the flow of fluids using molecular dynamic simulations of different types of carbon nanotubes that were embedded in liquid argon using a moving wall piston of graphene. We focused on analyzing pressure difference, velocities, and momentum conservation in different regions.
