Lattice Boltzmann simulation of heat and mass transfer with chemical reaction in porous structure

摘要

A lattice Boltzmann method for simulating heat and mass transfer with chemical reaction is developed and applied to the problems of flow and heat/mass transfer with a chemical reaction in a three-dimensional porous structure. The j-factors of heat and mass transfer are calculated and compared with available experimental data. The results indicate that the calculated j-factors agree with the experimental data, although that of mass transfer is a little larger especially at low Reynolds numbers.
