Abstract
Results from the numerical simulation of single and multicomponent flow, based on finite difference and lattice Boltzmann methods, will be presented. Excellent agreement is found between experimentally determined flow field distributions with that obtained by finite difference solution of the Stoke's equation. Lattice Boltzmann simulation of multicomponent flow in porous media is found to be consistent with the semiempiricial Cory theory. Strngths and weaknesses of both methods will be discussed. Finally, some preliminary results concerning sheared flows and phase separating fluids as well as multiphase flows will be given.
