Abstract:

In this paper， a two-dimensional lattice Boltzmann model based on enthalpy was established to study the temperature distribution， average liquid fraction and melting end time of the oxide layer of micronmeter-sized aluminum particles under different boundary conditions and particle sizes. The results show that the natural convection buoyancy has a significant effect on the melting characteristics. When a single heating wall is heated， due to the influence of natural convection buoyancy， the melting process of the lower wall is the fastest， and the melting speed of the upper wall is the slowest. When the two heating walls act together， the melting speed of the upper and lower heating walls is the fastest， and the melting time is shortened by 18.05% compared to the conditions of the left and right heating walls. As the number of heating walls increases， the improvement effect of melting efficiency weakens. Through calculation， it was found that compared with a single heating wall， the melting efficiency of double heating walls， three heating walls， and four heating walls increased by 21%， 73%， and 75%， respectively. The presence of a cold wall slows down the melting process， but the impact only exists in the latter half of the melting process. In addition， an increase in particle size can accelerate melting， but this characteristic will gradually weaken as the particle size increases.
