The Effective Thermal Conductivity of Unsaturated Porous Media Deduced by Pore-Scale SPH Simulation

The smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method was employed to simulate the heat transfer process in porous media at the pore scale. The effective thermal conductivity of a porous medium can be predicted through a simulation experiment of SPH. The accuracy of the SPH simulation experiment was veri...
