Entangled quantum particles, in which operating on one particle instantaneously influences the state of the entangled particle, are attractive options for carrying quantum information at the nanoscale. However, fully-describing entanglement in traditional time-dependent quantum transport simulation approaches requires significant computational effort, bordering on being prohibitive. Considering electrons, one approach to analyzing their entanglement is through modeling the Coulomb interaction via the Wigner formalism. In this work, we reduce the computational complexity of the time evolution of two interacting electrons by resorting to reasonable approximations. In particular, we replace the Wigner potential of the electron-electron interaction by a local electrostatic field, which is introduced through the spectral decomposition of the potential. It is demonstrated that for some particular configurations of an electron-electron system, the introduced approximations are feasible. Purity, identified as the maximal coherence for a quantum state, is also analyzed and its corresponding analysis demonstrates that the entanglement due to the Coulomb interaction is well accounted for by the introduced local approximation.
