We develop our recently proposed lattice-Boltzmann method for the nonequilibrium dynamics of amphiphilic fluids [H. Chen, B. M. Boghosian, P. V. Coveney, and M. Nekovee, Proc. R. Sec. London, Ser. A 456, 2043 (2000)]. Our method maintains an orientational degree of freedom for the amphiphilic species and models fluid interactions at a microscopic level by introducing self-consistent mean-field forces between the particles into the lattice-Boltzmann dynamics, in a way that is consistent with kinetic theory. We present the results of extensive simulations in two dimensions which demonstrate the ability of our model to capture the correct phenomenology of binary and ternary amphiphilic fluids.
