An improved Lattice Boltzmann method to deal with large density ratio of two-phase flow.

Number: AB-SI1-1163

Author(s) : GAO H., LIU B.

Summary

In this paper, a lattice Boltzmann method for simulating bubbles motion in liquid with large liquid-gas density ratio is proposed, a LBM scheme with optimized equilibrium distribution functions is used to solve the Cahn- Hilliard equation. In order to avoid numerical instability caused by a large density ratio, the second order upwind difference scheme with more accurate solution and more stable calculation process is used to calculate the first order derivative. Fourteen-point difference scheme is used for the second order derivative. The single bubble motion process and the double bubbles coalescence process in different liquid-gas systems, including water-air, water-vapor and Lithium Bromide solution-vapor in vertical ascending pipe, are simulated.
