Hello, I used the compute heat/flux command in lammps to compute the thermal conductivity of Ar basefluid and Ar-Cu nanofluid ( units lj ), and I find only when the timestep is as small as 0.0005, the thermal conductivity of Ar is convergent to be about 0.132(2048 Ar particles), but if the timestep is 0.002, the result will be rather bad, which would be larger and larger when the m (the parameter in the discrete expression for thermal conductivity) is increasing, which should not be that, because the result others report is what when the timestep is 0.002.
And as for Ar-Cu, the thermal conductivity is as large as ten times compared with the result in others’s articles.
And I attached the input files of Ar basefluid and ArCu nanofluid and the results, please check it for me, thanks
I notice the words of German Samolyuk in the following , so I want to call for your help. Whether there are some errs in the current compute heat/flux of lammps? Or it’s not appropriate for liquid-solid nanofluid? Can you show me your compute_hf.cpp and compute_hf.h? Or can you give me some suggestions?
