Melting and flowing in multiphase environment

This paper presents a method to simulate the melting and flowing phenomena with different materials in multiple phases. In such a multiphase environment, solid objects are melted because of heating and the melted liquid flows while interacting with the ambient air flow. Our simulation is based on a modified lattice Boltzmann method (LBM), where the fluid dynamics of the air flow and the melted liquid is modeled within a common lattice framework. Therefore, no particular front tracking methods are required for the liquid
