ABSTRACT

Large-scale molecular dynamics (MD) simulations on two-phase immiscible flows show that, associated with the moving contact line, there is a very large 1/x partial-slip region where x denotes the distance from the contact line. This power-law partial-slip region is verified in large-scale adaptive continuum calculations based on a local, continuum hydrodynamic formulation, which has proved successful in reproducing MD results at the nanoscale. Both MD simulations and numerical solutions of continuum equations indicate the existence of a universal slip profile in the Stokes-flow regime.
