Microstructure and rheology of finite inertia neutrally buoyant suspensions

The microstructure and rheological properties of suspensions of neutrally buoyant hard spherical particles in Newtonian fluid under finite inertia conditions are studied using the lattice-Boltzmann method (LBM), which is based on a discrete Boltzmann model for the fluid and Newtonian dynamics for the particles. The suspensions are subjected to simple-shear flow and the properties are studied as a function of Reynolds number and volume fraction,
