Hi Markus,
finally also something regarding your question about multiphase
fluids :-).
First note that the Shan-Chen was developed for simulating
embedded particles, not so much plain fluids. For the ltatter, one
often needs larger grids, and wir currently limited to one GPU and
something like 150^3 lattice nodes on 4GB GPUs. Also, walls for
Shan-Chen probably should have different wetting properties for
the different liquids, not just our current bounce-back walls.
Marcello and Mauro, who actually wrote the code, are currently
thinking about how and what to do.
Best regards,
Axel

Dear
Espresso-community,
I have read that Espresso++ is the successor of
Espresso. Does it mean, that the support of Espresso will
be stopped soon and one should swap to Espresso++? So far,
the documentation of the latter does not seem to be that
extensive as the one of ESPresSo.
I have also read the paper on Espresso++ (DOI:
10.1016/j.cpc.2012.12.004) which states, that the main
difference lies in the ability of providing AdResS. Besides
that, are there other reasons why one should choose
ESPresSo++ over ESPresSo?
Furthermore I am interested in the simulation
of multiphase fluids. I am thinking of simulations of
flow-focusing devices, joining of droplets or injection of
droplets. ESPresSo should be able doing that using the
Shan-Chen algorithm , shouldn’t it? Does anyone of you has
tried it before and could tell me about his experience,
please?
Thanks in advance!
Sincerely,
Markus Wink
