Immersed Boundary Method for Boltzmann and Navier- Stokes Solvers with Adaptive Cartesian Mesh
نویسندگان
چکیده
Adaptive Cartesian mesh methods have demonstrated unique abilities for automated mesh generation and dynamic mesh adaptation to flow solution and moving boundaries. However Navier-Stokes (NS) solvers with Cartesian mesh often produce large fluctuations of surface quantities (pressure, skin friction, and heat flux) at solid boundaries. We show that the Immersed Boundary Method (IBM) with adaptive octree Cartesian mesh allows one to eliminate unphysical fluctuations of skin friction and heat flux at solid boundaries for viscous flow simulations. Implementation of IBM for deterministic Boltzmann solvers with adaptive Cartesian mesh is described.

Immersed-boundary methods for general finite-difference and finite-volume Navier-Stokes solvers
We present an immersed-boundary algorithm for incompressible flows with complex boundaries, suitable for Cartesian or curvilinear grid system. The key stages of any immersed-boundary technique are the interpolation of a velocity field given on a mesh onto a general boundary (a line in 2D, a surface in 3D), and the spreading of a force field from the immersed boundary to the neighboring mesh poi...

The immersed boundary (IB) method is a computational framework for problems involving the interaction of a fluid and immersed elastic structures. It is characterized by the use of a uniform Cartesian mesh for the fluid, a Lagrangian curvilinear mesh on the elastic material, and discrete delta functions for communication between the two grids. We consider a simple IB problem in a twodimensional ...
