Multiphase flows with momentum, heat, and mass transfer exist widely in a variety of
industrial applications. With the rapid development of numerical algorithms and computer …

We review the progress in the development and application of immersed boundary (IB)
methods to thermofluids problems achieved in the last three decades. The implementation of …

A new very high-order technique for solving conservation laws with curved boundary
domains is proposed. A Finite Difference scheme on Cartesian grids is coupled with an …

A novel thermal immersed boundary-lattice Boltzmann method is developed to simulate the
2D natural convection in a concentric horizontal annulus with a constant flux wall. In the …

We report the development of an in-house fluid-structure interaction solver and its
application to vortex-induced vibration (VIV) of an elastically mounted cylinder in the …

Flow and reactive transport problems in engineering, medical and environmental
applications often involve complex geometries. Grid based methods (eg finite volume, finite …

In this paper, our previous ghost-cell compressible immersed boundary method (Luo et al.,
2016) is further implemented to solve heat transfer problems in flows with complex solid …

The immersed boundary method (IBM) was developed for the first time in the present study
to simulate the radiative heat transfer problems in complex geometries. The pseudo time …

This paper presents a parametric numerical investigation of solidification around two cooled
cylinders placed in tandem under forced convection. The front-tracking/finite difference …

We present a simulation framework that makes it possible to accurately simulate spray
painting of eg a truck cab in only a few hours on a standard computer. This is an extreme …
