Lattice Boltzmann model of immiscible fluids

Gunstensen, Andrew K., Rothman, Daniel H., Zaleski, Stéphane, Zanetti, Gianluigi·1991·Physical Review A

Abstract

We introduce a lattice Boltzmann model for simulating immiscible binary fluids in two dimensions. The model, based on the Boltzmann equation of lattice-gas hydrodynamics, incorporates features of a previously introduced discrete immiscible lattice-gas model. A theoretical value of the surface-tension coefficient is derived and found to be in excellent agreement with values obtained from simulations. The model serves as a numerical method for the simulation of immiscible two-phase flow; a preliminary application illustrates a simulation of flow in a two-dimensional microscopic model of a porous medium. Extension of the model to three dimensions appears straightforward.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
