The Washburn law has always played a critical role for ceramics. In the microscale, surface forces take over volume forces and the phenomenon of spontaneous infiltration in narrow interstices becomes of particular relevance. The Lattice…
Coherent structures (CS) are known to be part of the foundations of turbulent flow dynamics. For a long time, their appearance was believed to be chaotic and unorganized. However, it has been demonstrated through numerical simulations and…
The lattice Boltzmann model is a simplified kinetic method based on the particle distribution function. We use this method to simulate problems in MEMS, in which the velocity slip near the wall plays an important role. It is demonstrated…
The lattice Boltzmann (LB) method has gained much success in a variety of fields involving fluid flow and/or heat transfer. In this method, the bounce-back scheme is a popular boundary scheme for treating nonslip boundaries. However, this…
We investigate the hydrodynamic recovery of Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) by analyzing exact balance relations for energy and enstrophy derived from averaging the equations of motion on sub-volumes of different sizes. In the context of 2D…
Double-diffusive convection in porous media is a common phenomenon in nature, and has received considerable attention in a wide variety of engineering applications. In this paper, a multiple-relaxation-time (MRT) lattice Boltzmann (LB)…
We consider the Berlin-Kac spherical model for supercritical densities under a periodic lattice energy function which has finitely many non-degenerate global minima. Energy functions arising from nearest neighbour interactions on a…
The present parametric study deals with the meso-scale modelling of concrete subjected to cyclic compression, which exhibits hysteresis loops during unloading and reloading. Concrete is idealised as a two-dimensional three-phase composite…
We present an energy-conserving multiple-relaxation-time finite difference lattice Boltzmann model for compressible flows. This model is based on a 16-discrete-velocity model. The collision step is first calculated in the moment space and…
A novel Lattice Boltzmann Method applicable to compressible fluid flows is developed. This method is based on replacing the governing equations by a relaxation system and the interpretation of the diagonal form of the relaxation system as a…
The liquid-gas density ratio is a key property of multiphase flow methods to model real fluid systems. Here, a chemical-potential multiphase lattice Boltzmann method is constructed to realize extremely large density ratios. The simulations…
The effects of mid-range repulsion in Lattice Boltzmann models on the coalescence/breakup behaviour of single-component, non-ideal fluids are investigated. It is found that mid-range repulsive interactions allow the formation of spray-like,…
Well designed lattice-Boltzmann codes exploit the essentially embarrassingly parallel features of the algorithm and so can be run with considerable efficiency on modern supercomputers. Such scalable codes permit us to simulate the behaviour…
The enhanced oil recovery technique of low-salinity (LS) water flooding is a topic of substantial interest in the petroleum industry. Studies have shown that LS brine injection can increase oil production relative to conventional…
We study the transport of inertial particles in water flow in porous media. Our interest lies in understanding the accumulation of particles including the possibility of clogging. We propose that accumulation can be a result of hydrodynamic…
A new lattice Boltzmann model (LBM) is presented to describe chemically reacting multicomponent fluid flow in homogenised porous media. In this work, towards further generalizing the multicomponent reactive lattice Boltzmann model, we…
We use novel, fast 4D Synchrotron X-ray imaging with large field-of-view to reveal pore- and macro-scale drainage dynamics during gas-brine flow through a layered sandstone rock sample. We show that a single centimetre-scale layer, similar…
We introduce new versions of lattice Boltzmann methods (LBM) for incompressible binary mixtures where fluctuations of total density are inhibited. As a test for the improved algorithms we consider the problem of phase separation of…
We study liquid-vapor phase separation under shear via the Shan-Chen lattice Boltzmann model. Besides the rheological characteristics, we analyze the Kelvin-Helmholtz(K-H) instability resulting from the tangential velocity difference of the…
Multiphase flow through a porous medium involves complex interactions between gravity, wettability and capillarity during drainage process. In contrast to these factors, the effect of pore distribution on liquid retention is less…
