in according to the simplicity of the lattice boltzmann method’s(lbm) algorithm and its benefits, it has been used as a successful method in computational fluid dynamics in the last decades. in this paper, lbm was used to simulate the flow over a cylinder. to analyze the application of lbm in simulation curved surface, different methods to compute drag coefficient were used. these methods are: ...

A Lattice-Boltzmann-based Large-Eddy Simulation approach for wind load prediction on high-rise building is proposed and validated. An extension of the original incompressible Synthetic Eddy Method to reconstruct inlet turbulence within Lattice-Boltzmann framework, including a low-noise frozen density variant. Extensive successful comparisons with experimental data are carried out, both quantiti...

In this paper a lattice Boltzmann model is proposed for isothermal incompressible flow in porous media. The key point is to include the porosity into the equilibrium distribution, and add a force term to the evolution equation to account for the linear and nonlinear drag forces of the medium (the Darcy's term and the Forcheimer's term). Through the Chapman-Enskog procedure, the generalized Navi...

We present a physically-based, yet fast and simple method to simulate gaseous phenomena. In our approach, the incompressible Navier-Stokes (NS) equations governing fluid motion have been modeled in a novel way to achieve a realistic animation. We introduce the Lattice Boltzmann Model (LBM) which simulates the microscopic movement of fluid particles by linear and local rules on a grid of cells, ...

Abstract   This study is applied Lattice Boltzmann Method to investigate the natural convection flow utilizing nanofluids in a concentric annulus. A numerical strategy presents for dealing with curved boundaries of second order accuracy for both velocity and temperature fields. The fluid between the cylinders is a water-based nanofluid containing different types of nanoparticles: copper (Cu), a...

in this study, we proposed a novel scheme for the implementation of the no-slip boundary condition in thelattice boltzmann method (lbm) . in detail , we have substituted the classical bounce-back idea by the direct immersed boundary specification . in this way we construct the equilibrium density functions in such a way that it feels the no-slip boundaries . therefore , in fact a kind of equili...
