Lattice Boltzmann Method Applied to the Solution of Energy Equation of a Radiation and Non-Fourier Heat Conduction Problem

This article concerns the application of the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) to solve the energy equation of a combined radiation and non-Fourier conduction heat transfer problem. The finite propagation speed of the thermal wave front is accounted by non-Fourier heat conduction equation. The governing energy equation is solved using the LBM. The finite-volume method (FVM) is used to compute the radiative information. The formulation is validated by taking test cases in 1-D planar absorbing, emitting, and scattering medium whose west boundary experiences a sudden rise in temperature, or, with adiabatic boundaries, the medium is subjected to a sudden localized energy source. Results are analyzed for the various values of parameters like the extinction coefficient, the scattering albedo, the conduction-radiation parameter, etc., on temperature distributions in the medium. Radiation has been found to help in facilitating faster distribution of energy in the medium. Unlike Fourier conduction, wave fronts have been found to reflect from the boundaries. The LBM-FVM combination has been found to provide accurate results.
