A brief on the application of multiphase lattice Boltzmann method for boiling and evaporation

Lattice Boltzmann Simulation of Cavitating Flow in a Two-Dimensional Nozzle with Moving Needle Valve

“…For a specific fluid, important parameters such as the critical temperature T d,LS , critical pressure P d,LS , and gas constant R LS can all be solved through the EOS. The physical parameter can be calculated using the parameter formula in Equation (13). However, when solving the equations, one might encounter the issue of having four unknowns but only three operational equations.…”

“…However, over the last three decades, scholars have progressively developed mesoscopic computational methods founded on statistical mechanics, notably the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM). Owing to innate advantages for parallelization and resolving complex boundaries, LBM has attained widespread adoption for simulating phenomena such as multiphase flow [6], deformable fluid-filled bodies [7], fluid-structure interaction [8], Phase Change Material Energy Storage [9], fuel cells [10], acoustics [11], combustion applications [12], boiling, and evaporation [13].…”

Numerical simulation and experimental investigation of bubble behaviour during pool boiling in the coiled wire

“…Thus, numerical methods capable of resolving the interface are considered suitable for phase transition process simulation. The volume of the fluid method [ [5] , [6] , [7] ], level-set method [ 8 , 9 ], arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian approach [ 2 , 10 ], phase field method [ [11] , [12] , [13] ], colour function method [ [14] , [15] , [16] ], lattice Boltzmann method [ [17] , [18] , [19] , [20] , [21] , [22] ], and front tracking method [ 23 ] are interface-resolving techniques used in boiling simulations. Son and Dhir simulated nucleate pool boiling close to the Critical Heat Flux (CHF) using the level set approach.…”
