Recently, consistent meshfree particle methods have been intensively studied. It has been
pointed out that numerical inaccuracy or instability could easily occur with incomplete or …

To better understand the role of particle inertia on the heat transfer in the presence of a
thermal inhomogeneity, Eulerian–Lagrangian direct numerical simulations (DNSs) have …

Flow boiling within conventional, mini and micro-scale channels is encountered in a wide
range of engineering applications such as nuclear reactors, steam engines and cooling of …

The virtual finite volume method (VFVM), based on Voronoi diagrams, is developed, and
applied to two benchmark simulations of laminar and turbulent flows. The results of the …
