Although the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method has played a dominant role in studying and simulating transport phenomena involving fluid flow and heat and mass transfers, in recent years, other numerical methods for the simulations at meso- and micro-scales have also been actively applied to solve the physics of complex flow and fluid-interface interactions. This paper presents a review of recent advances in multi-scale computational simulation of biomimetics related fluid flow problems. The state-of-the-art numerical techniques, such as lattice Boltzmann method (LBM), molecular dynamics (MD), and conventional CFD, applied to different problems such as fish flow, electro-osmosis effect of earthworm motion, and self-cleaning hydrophobic surface, and the numerical approaches are introduced. The new challenging of modelling biomimetics problems in developing the physical conditions of self-clean hydrophobic surfaces is discussed.展开更多

The results indicate that p(C02) and HCO3 concentration decrease significantly, while pH and CO32- concentration increase significantly. When the con- centration of NO3 was less than 71 μmol/dm3 or NH4+ was less than 49.7μmol/dm3, dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) absorption rates by Ulva pertusa generally increased with the increasing of nitrogen concentration. The DIC decreased 151 μmol/dm3 with the addition of 71 μmol/dm3 NO3 and decreased 232 μmol/dm3 with the addition of 49.7 μmol/dm3 NH+ after the experiment compared with DIC measured without nitrogen addition. A significant negative-correlation was found between Ac(DIC) and growth rate (#) of Ulva pertusa (r =- 0.91, P 〈0.000 1, n=11). NH+ had more influence on the species of inorganic carbon system than NO3.展开更多
