Abstract
Multiparticle collision dynamics (MPCD) is a relatively new algorithm of fluid flow simulations that has been applied mostly to flows around simple objects. One might ask how it behaves in more complex flows. Therefore, we extend MPCD to simulate transport in porous media. For this, a particle-level drag force is introduced into the original algorithm. The force hinders the flow, which results in global resistance to flow and decrease of permeability. The extended algorithm is validated in the flow through a porous channel and compared with an analytical solution. Some basic properties of the solver are investigated.
