In the late 90's and early 2000's the concept of a discrete H theorem and Lyapunov
functionals as a way to ensure stability of lattice Boltzmann solvers was a shift of paradigm in …

This contribution presents a comprehensive overview of lattice Boltzmann models for non-
ideal fluids, covering both theoretical concepts at both kinetic and macroscopic levels and …

This paper experimentally investigated the Leidenfrost dynamics of an impacting droplet of
water and 2–8 vol% iso-propanol-water solutions in the film boiling regime up to 450° C. A …

In this paper, the effect of a non-uniform electric field on pool boiling is investigated by using
the pseudopotential lattice Boltzmann model and the leaky dielectric model. The focus of the …

Janus-textured substrates refer to surfaces with heterogeneous topographies, which have
received particular attention recently due to their potential application in manipulating …

In recent years, the thermal pseudo-potential lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) has been
widely adopted in numerical simulations of liquid–vapor phase transition systems. However …

Doubly re-entrant pillars have been demonstrated to possess superior static and dynamic
liquid repellency against highly wettable liquids compared to straight or re-entrant pillars …

We investigate the spreading of falling ambient-temperature Newtonian drops after their
normal impact on a quartz plate covered with a thin layer of liquid nitrogen. As a drop …

Droplet impact and freezing on cold surfaces is a widely encountered multi-physical
phenomenon involving droplet deformation and the liquid–solid phase change. Due to its …

The flow boiling heat transfer in microchannels has been extensively used in engineering
due to its high heat dissipation with a small temperature difference. This study employs a …
