A two-dimensional lattice-Boltzmann model with a hexagonal lattice is developed to simulate a boiling two-phase flow microscopically. Liquid-gas phase transition and bubble dynamics, including bubble formation, growth and deformation, are modeled by using an interparticle potential based on the van der Waals equation of state. Thermohydrodynamics is incorporated into the model by adding extra velocities to define temperature. The lattice-Boltzmann model is solved by a finite difference scheme so that numerical stability can be ensured at large discontinuity across the liquid-gas phase boundary and the narrow phase interface thickness can be attained. It is shown from numerical simulations that the model has the ability to reproduce phase transition, bubble dynamics and thermohydrodynamics while assuring numerical instability and narrow phase interface.

Abstract Based on the newly developed geometrical model of open-cell metal foam, pool boiling heat transfer in open-cell metal foam, considering thermal responses of foam skeletons, is investigated by the phase-change lattice Boltzmann method (LBM). Pool boiling patterns are obtained at different heat fluxes. The effects of pore density and foam thickness on bubble dynamics and pool boiling heat transfer are revealed. The results show that “bubble entrainment” promotes fluid mixing and bubble sliding inside metal foam. Based on force analysis, the sliding bubble is pinned on the heating surface and cannot lift off completely at high heat flux due to the increasing surface tension force. Pool boiling heat transfer coefficient decreases with increasing pore density and foam thickness due to high bubble escaping resistance.

Differences in the temperature field and deformation of locally heated thin liquid film are studied theoretically for various velocity profiles: parabolic velocity profile in the case of gravity-driven film flow, and uniform one in the case of moving heat source in zero-gravity conditions. Conjugate (hydrodynamic and heat) two-dimensional steady-state problem is solved using long-wave approximation. It is shown that under equal other conditions the flow with uniform velocity profile is characterized by dramatic increase in the thermocapillary deformation of the free surface. At the same time this regime possesses higher stability for dry spot formation comparatively with the shear-driven flow regime.
