Numerical Simulation of Filling Process in Casting Based on a Hybrid Lattice Boltzmann and Particle Level Set Model

Article Preview

Abstract:

Free-surface phenomena play an important role in many engineering applications, such as filling process in casting, etching process and so on. As we know, level set kind method is more accurate than Volume of Fluid kind method. In this paper, we implement a hybrid lattice Boltzmann and particle level set method to simulate filling processes in a 2D cavity. Results obtained by the hybrid lattice Boltzmann and particle level set method show the same filling pattern with other methods in two different Reynolds numbers.
