    Gradients of voltage, pressure, temperature, and salinity can transport objects in micro- and nanofluidic systems by well-known mechanisms. This paper explores the dynamics of particles in a viscosity gradient with numerical simulations. The different stochastic rules used to integrate the random motion of Brownian particles affect the steady-state distribution of particles in a diffusivity gradient. Importantly, the simulations illuminate the important role that the boundary conditions play, disallowing a steady-state flux when the boundary conditions mimic those of a closed container, but allowing flux when they mimic electrodes. These results provide an interpretation for measurements of a steady ionic current flowing between electrodes separated by a nanofluidic channel with a liquid viscosity gradient.
