Abstract / Description of output
Inertial particle microfluidics (IPMF) is an emerging technology for the manipulation and separation of microparticles and biological cells. Since the flow physics of IPMF is complex and experimental studies are often time-consuming or costly, computer simulations can offer complementary insights. In this tutorial review, we provide a guide for researchers who are exploring the potential of the lattice-Boltzmann (LB) method for simulating IPMF ap-plications. We first review the existing literature to establish the state of the art of LB-based IPMF modelling. After summarising the physics of IPMF, we then present related methods used in LB models for IPMF and show sev-eral case studies of LB simulations for a range of IPMF scenarios. Finally, we conclude with an outlook and several proposed research directions.
