Abstract
We have developed a software that can predict the inlet flow of a nematic liquid crystal into a liquid crystal cell, using the Leslie-Ericksen equations with the Hele-Shaw approximation. As an example, we have selected a liquid crystal cell with 75 mm in length, 100 mm in width and 10 μm in thickness, and presented transient free surface positions of MBBA with the anchoring angles of -90 and 0 deg.
