In this paper, we propose a direct extension of a previous work presented by Hamila et al. [1 R. Hamila, M. Nouri, S. Ben Nasrallah, and P. Perré, Int. J. Heat Mass Transfer, vol. 100, pp. 728–736, 2016.[CrossRef], [Web of Science ®], [Google Scholar]] dealing with the simulation of conjugate heat transfer by conduction in heterogeneous media. In [1 R. Hamila, M. Nouri, S. Ben Nasrallah, and P. Perré, Int. J. Heat Mass Transfer, vol. 100, pp. 728–736, 2016.[CrossRef], [Web of Science ®], [Google Scholar]] a novel enthalpy-based lattice Boltzmann (LB) formulation was successfully simulated in several conjugate heat transfer problems by conduction. We propose testing this enthalpic LB formulation in solving convection-diffusion heat transfer problems in heterogeneous media. The main idea of this formulation is to introduce an extra source term, avoiding any additional treatment of the distribution functions at the interface. Continuity of temperature and normal heat flux at the interface is satisfied automatically. The performance of the present method is successfully validated by comparison to the control volume methods (CVMs) solutions of several heat convection-diffusion problems in heterogeneous media.
