Lattice Boltzmann models that recover a macroscopic description of multiphase flow of immiscible liquids typically represent the boundaries between phases using a scalar function, the phase field, that varies smoothly over several grid points. Attempts to tune the model parameters to minimise the wi

In this paper, we propose a new lattice Boltzmann scheme for simulation of multiphase flow in the nearly incompressible limit. The new scheme simulates fluid flows based on distribution functions. The interfacial dynamics, such as phase segregation and surface tension, are modeled by incorporating m
A detailed comparison between the finite element method (FEM) and the lattice-Boltzmann method (LBM) is presented. As a realistic test case, three-dimensional fluid flow simulations in an SMRX static mixer were performed. The SMRX static mixer is a piece of equipment with excellent mixing performanc
An efficient numerical method for the direct simulation of homogeneous turbulent flow has been obtained by combining a spectral forcing algorithm for homogeneous turbulence with a lattice-Boltzmann scheme for solution of the continuity and Navier-Stokes equations. The spectral forcing scheme of Alve
The lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) with the fifteen-velocity model is applied to simulations of isothermal flows in a three-dimensional porous structure. A periodic boundary condition with a pressure difference at the inlet and outlet is presented. Flow characteristics at a pore scale and pressure d
