A thermal LBGK model for large density and temperature differences
We present a new lattice-Boltzmann method for hydrodynamic simulations, which is capable of handling very large density and temperature gradients. Unlike other LBGK models, the discrete velocities we used center at the local mean Bow velocity, and their values vary according to the local temperature. The adiabatic index of the gas can be easily controlled by a parameter.
