摘要
A nanofluid is a particle suspension that consists of base liquids and nanoparticles and has great potential for heat transfer enhancement. By accounting for the external and internal forces acting on the suspended nanoparticles and interactions among the nanoparticles and fluid particles, a lattice Boltzmann model is proposed for simulating flow and energy transport processes inside the nanofluids. First, we briefly introduce the conventional lattice Boltzmann model for multicomponent systems. Then, we discuss the irregular motion of the nanoparticles and inherent dynamic behavior of nanofluids and describe a lattice Boltzmann model for simulating nanofluids. Finally, we conduct some calculations for the distribution of the suspended nanoparticles.
