Abstract:A hybrid axisymmetric conservative phase-field lattice Boltzmann method is applied to investigate the influence of Marangoni number (Ma), density ratio (ρr), and radius ratio (Rr) on thermocapillary migration of a deformable hollow droplet with difference in variable fluid properties, where ρr (Rr) is the density (radius) ratio of the hollow part of the droplet. The isotherms show that heat transfer around the hollow droplet is changed from conduction to convection with the increase in Ma. However, the tempera… Show more
