Numerical Study on Heat-Transfer Characteristics of Convection Melting in Metal Foam under Sinusoidal Temperature Boundary Conditions

Convection melting in metal foam under sinusoidal temperature boundary conditions is numerically studied in the present study. A multiple-relaxation-time lattice Boltzmann method, in conjunction with the enthalpy approach, is constructed to model the melting process without iteration steps. The effe...
