The article proposes a diffuse interface model for compressible multicomponent flows with mass, momentum, and energy transport phenomena. The model is reduced from a seven-equation model to a five-equation model by assuming different time scales for pressure and velocity relaxations. The proposed model maintains equilibrium near the diffused interface and shows good agreement with experimental results. The numerical methods used achieve second-order accuracy in space and time.
The present article proposes a diffuse interface model for compressible multicomponent flows with transport phenomena of mass, momentum and energy (i.e., mass diffusion, viscous dissipation and heat conduction). The model is reduced from the seven-equation Baer-Nuziato type model with asymptotic analysis in the limit of instantaneous mechanical relaxations. The main difference between the present model and the Kapila's five-equation model consists in that different time scales for pressure and velocity relaxations are assumed, the former being much smaller than the latter. Thanks to this assumption, the velocity disequilibrium is retained to model the mass diffusion process. Aided by the diffusion laws, the final model still formally consists of five equations. The proposed model satisfy two desirable properties: (1) it respects the laws of thermodynamics, (2) it is free of the spurious oscillation problem in the vicinity of the diffused interface zone. For solution of the model governing equations, we implement the fractional step method to split the model into five physical steps: the hydrodynamic step, the viscous step, the heat transfer step, the heat conduction step and the mass diffusion step. The split governing equations for the hydrodynamic step formally coincide with the Kapila's five-equation model and are solved with the Godunov finite volume method. The mass diffusion, viscous dissipation and heat conduction processes contribute parabolic partial differential equations that are solved with the Chebyshev method of local iterations. Numerical results show that the proposed model maintains pressure, velocity and temperature equilibrium near the diffused interface. Convergence tests demonstrate that the numerical methods achieve second order in space and time. The proposed model and numerical methods are applied to simulate the hydrodynamic instability problems in the inertial confinement fusion. Good agreement with experimental results is observed.(c) 2022 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
