JADIM

Jadim is a research code developed by J. Magnaudet and D. Legendre's team in the Interface

group at Institut de Mécaniques des Fluides de Toulouse. The code permits to describe in an

accurate way physical mechanisms present in multiphasic �ows.

� Volume of Fluid formulation is employed

� Thermal and Immersed Boundary Method routine are supported

In the present work the objective is to couple the three of them and, in particular, to develop a

thermal based IBM formulation
