Lattice Boltzmann simulation of low-Reynolds-number cavitating contracting-nozzle flow interacting with a moving valve

Investigating internal-injector cavitating flow dynamics is difficult but important. The interaction of nozzle cavitation with the moving needle valve dictates the fuel mass flow rate and therefore spray combustion performance and emissions. In the present study, a two-dimensional low-Reynolds-numbe...
