Abstract

In this paper, an original phase-field lattice Boltzmann scheme for a system composed of two immiscible and incompressible fluids interacting with moving solids is developed, presented, and tested for the first time. The proposed approach is benchmarked against experimental data and smoothed particle hydrodynamics simulations of four well-established two-dimensional problems where a rigid body interacts with the interface between the two fluids. The outlined methodology represents a very good candidate to perform fluid-structure interaction simulations of hydrodynamic stability problems as well as water-entry and water-exit problems.
