Numerical and Analytical Spatial Coupling of a Lattice Boltzmann Model and a Partial Differential Equation

چکیده
This article is concerned with the spatial coupling of a lattice Boltzmann model (LBM) and the finite difference discretization of the corresponding partial differential equation (PDE). At the interface, we have a one-to-many problem since the macroscopic PDE variables have to be mapped to more LBM variables. We show how this mapping can be done either analytically, using results from the Chapman-Enskog expansion or numerically, using a fixed point iterative scheme. The results are illustrated for different diffusive systems on a one-dimensional domain.

Numerical Simulation of Fluid Flow Past a Square Cylinder Using a Lattice Boltzmann Method
The method of lattice boltzmann equation(LBE) is a kinetic-based approach for fluid flow computations. In the last decade, minimal kinetic models, and primarily the LBE, have met with significant success in the simulation of complex hydrodynamic phenomena, ranging from slow flows in grossly irregular geometries to fully developed turbulence, to flow with dynamic phase transitions. In the presen...
متن کاملAccuracy of Hybrid Lattice Boltzmann/Finite Difference Schemes for Reaction-Diffusion Systems
In this article we construct a hybrid model by spatially coupling a lattice Boltzmann model (LBM) to a finite difference discretization of the partial differential equation (PDE) for reaction-diffusion systems. Because the LBM has more variables (the particle distribution functions) than the PDE (only the particle density), we have a one-to-many mapping problem from the PDE to the LBM domain at...
متن کاملNumerical Extraction of a Macroscopic PDE and a Lifting Operator from a Lattice Boltzmann Model
Lifting operators play an important role in starting a lattice Boltzmann model from a given initial density. The density, a macroscopic variable, needs to be mapped to the distribution functions, mesoscopic variables, of the lattice Boltzmann model. Several methods proposed as lifting operators have been tested and discussed in the literature. The most famous methods are an analytically found l...

In this paper an alternative model allowing the extension of the Debye-Hückel Theory (DHT) considering time dependence explicitly is presented. From the Electro-Quasistatic approach (EQS) introduced in earlier studies time dependent potentials are suitable to describe several phenomena especially conducting media as well as the behaviour of charged particles (ions) in electrolytes. This leads t...
