Simulation of nonideal gases and liquid-gas phase transitions by the lattice Boltzmann equation
Open accessAbstract
We describe in detail a recently proposed lattice-Boltzmann model [X. Shan and H. Chen, Phys. Rev. E 47, 1815 (1993)] for simulating flows with multiple phases and components. In particular, the focus is on the modeling of one-component fluid systems which obey nonideal gas equations of state and can undergo a liquid-gas-type phase transition. The model is shown to be momentum conserving. From the microscopic mechanical stability condition, the densities in bulk liquid and gas phases are obtained as functions of a temperaturelike parameter. Comparisons with the thermodynamic theory of phase transitions show that the lattice-Boltzmann-equation model can be made to correspond exactly to an isothermal process. The density profile in the liquid-gas interface is also obtained as a function of the temperaturelike parameter and is shown to be isotropic. The surface tension, which can be changed independently, is calculated. The analytical conclusions are verified by numerical simulations.

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.
