In this project, the emphasis is on studying the feasibility of the Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) for modelling the vaporization of fuel injection systems. The result will show the advantages and disadvantages and reliability of this method in the injection system optimisation and comparison with technique as finite volume method.
