Lattice Boltzmann model with self-tuning equation of state for multiphase flows
arXiv:1809.02390 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevE.99.023303
Abstract
A novel lattice Boltzmann (LB) model for multiphase flows is developed that complies with the thermodynamic foundations of kinetic theory. By directly devising the collision term for LB equation at the discrete level, a self-tuning equation of state is achieved, which can be interpreted as the incorporation of short-range molecular interaction. A pairwise interaction force is introduced to mimic the long-range molecular interaction, which is responsible for interfacial dynamics. The derived pressure tensor is naturally consistent with thermodynamic theory, and surface tension and interface thickness can be independently prescribed.
