Abstract

In this work, a lattice Boltzmann scheme is developed for numerical solution of the phonon Boltzmann equation under Callaway's dual relaxation model in the hydrodynamic limit. Through a Chapman-Enskog expansion to the lattice Boltzmann equation with the resistive scattering term as an equivalent source term, we recover a phonon hydrodynamic equation which is reduced to the Guyer-Krumhansl heat transport equation and the Fourier's law in the limit of dominant normal scattering and dominant resistive scattering respectively. The transition of heat transport from diffusive regime to hydrodynamic regime is modeled extensively by the present numerical scheme, which produces results in good agreement with the benchmark solutions and experimental measurement. Two well-known phonon hydrodynamic phenomena including the phonon Poiseuille flow and second sound propagation are well captured by the lattice Boltzmann scheme. This work will promote the numerical modeling and deeper understanding of the non-Fourier heat transport induced by phonon normal scattering.
