Particle-resolved thermal lattice Boltzmann simulation using OpenACC on multi-GPUs
Ao Xu, Bo-Tao Li
We utilize the Open Accelerator (OpenACC) approach for graphics processing unit (GPU) accelerated particle-resolved thermal lattice Boltzmann (LB) simulation. We adopt the momentum…
Pore-scale statistics of temperature and thermal energy dissipation rate in turbulent porous convection
Ao Xu, Ben-Rui Xu, Heng-Dong Xi
We report pore-scale statistical properties of temperature and thermal energy dissipation rate in a two-dimensional porous Rayleigh-Bénard (RB) cell. High-resolution direct numeric…
Long-distance migration with minimal energy consumption in a thermal turbulent environment
Ao Xu, Hua-Lin Wu, Heng-Dong Xi
We adopt the reinforcement learning algorithm to train the self-propelling agent migrating long-distance in a thermal turbulent environment. We choose the Rayleigh-Bénard turbulent…
Wall-sheared thermal convection: heat transfer enhancement and turbulence relaminarization
Ao Xu, Ben-Rui Xu, Heng-Dong Xi
We studied the flow organization and heat transfer properties in two-dimensional and three-dimensional Rayleigh-Bénard cells that are imposed with different types of wall shear. Th…
