Lagrangian Transport Through Surfaces in Compressible Flows
Abstract
A material-based, i.e., Lagrangian, methodology for exact integration of flux by volume-preserving flows through a surface has been developed recently in [Karrasch, SIAM J. Appl. Math., 76 (2016), pp. 1178-1190]. In the present paper, we first generalize this framework to general compressible flows, thereby solving the donating region problem in full generality. Second, we demonstrate the efficacy of this approach on a slightly idealized version of a classic two-dimensional mixing problem: transport in a cross-channel micromixer, as considered recently in [Balasuriya, SIAM J. Appl. Dyn. Syst., 16 (2017), pp. 1015-1044].
