Numerical Simulation of Solid Melting with Natural Convection Using the Double Lattice Boltzmann Method
A double lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) based on the D2Q9 model was developed to simulate natural convection melting and heat transfer in energy systems, including nuclear systems. Fluid flow in the liquid region was solved using the multi-relaxation-time LBM (MRT-LBM), whereas the energy equation was treated with the...
