Dear all,
I’m working on simulation of couette flow of liquid argon. I defined 3 types of atoms, two types have mass equals 4 and one type has mass of 1. Then I defined 3 regions: two regions as the walls of channel and one region as the fluid. My objective is to simulate the wall with density=2.73 σ3 and fluid with density=0.8 σ3. Based on my understanding, the scale arguments of lattice is the density for lj units.
When I use 0.8 for both lattice arguments in my input file (two walls and liquid), my results seem correct. However, if I chose 2.73 for lattice argument of two walls and 0.8 for lattice argument of liquid, I get very large numbers for energy, pressure and volume in output file and an “ERROR:Lost atoms: original 4479 current 4443”.
I was wondering if you have any idea that how can I modify my input file and please let me know if it has any problem in creation of geometry and region. I attached my input file and velocity distribution (when I use the same lattice arguments for liquid and wall (0.8)).
I really appreciate your help.
Regards,
Hamed.
