    Abstract
    The phenomena of formation and detachment of droplets are of fundamental importance in studying two-phase flows, such as spraying processes, ink jet printing, emulosin, etc. Droplets are formed under the effects of surface tension forces. After formation, forces like gravity detach the droplet from the rest of the fluid. Recent advancements in computational fluid dynamics and computers have made it feasible to have advancement in simulation of complex flows, including two-phase phenomenon. On the other hand, the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) has been developed into an alternative and promising numerical scheme for simulating multi-component fluid flows.
    In this project, formation and...
