A non-equilibrium multi-component model with miscible conditions

Abstract

This paper concerns the study of a full non-equilibrium model for a compressible mixture of any number of phases. Miscible conditions are considered in one phase, which lead to non-symmetric constraints on the statistical fractions. These models are subject to the choice of interfacial and source terms. We show that under a standard assumption on the interfacial velocity, the interfacial pressures are uniquely defined. The model is hyperbolic and symmetrizable under nonresonance conditions. Classes of entropy-consistent source terms are then proposed.
