Abstract

In this work a phase field-lattice Boltzmann model for incompressible two-phase flows is presented. In this model, the interface tracking equation is a linear combination of the local and nonlocal Allen-Cahn equations. We also propose a multiple-relaxation-time lattice Boltzmann model for solving the hybrid Allen-Cahn equation. The second-order convergence rate of the present model in space is validated by simulating the diagonal translation of circular interface. Three other numerical tests, including static bubble immersed in another fluid, bubble rising under gravity, and droplet splashing on a thin liquid film, are simulated to verify the performance of the present model in reducing the numerical dispersion. The numerical results indicate that the order parameter fluctuation can be reduced by one order of magnitude in bulk region.
