Numerical 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...
متن کاملNumerical simulation of flow past a square obstacle with Lattice Boltzmann Method
Numerical technique Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) is relatively new approach based on gas kinetic theory in meso-scale. Macroscopic variables such as pressure and velocity can be determined by momentum of so called particle distribution functions which are described by Boltzmann transport equation. LBM has been extensively studied in last several decades and witnessed as capable like conventio...
متن کاملLattice Boltzmann method for MHD natural convection of CuO/water nanofluid in a wavy-walled cavity with sinusoidal temperature distribution
In this paper, natural convection heat transfer of CuO-water Nanofluid within a wavy-walled cavity and subjected to a uniform magnetic field is examined by adopting the lattice Boltzmann model. The left wavy wall is heated sinusoidal, while the right flat wall is maintained at the constant temperature of Tc. The top and the bottom horizontal walls are smooth and insulated against heat and mass....
متن کاملKinetic Theory of Hydrodynamic Flows. I. The Generalized Normal Solution Method and Its Application to the Drag on a Sphere
We consider the flow of a dilute gas around a macroscopic heavy object. The state of the gas is described by an extended Boltzmann equation where the interactions between the gas molecules and the object are taken into account in computing the rate of change of the distribution function of the gas. We then show that the extended Boltzmann is equivalent to the usual Boltzmann equation, supplemen...
متن کاملLattice Boltzmann simulations of electrostaticplasma
A Lattice Boltzmann algorithm to study the 3-D electrostatic-turbulence dynamics in thermonuclear plasmas is presented. The ion continuity, momentum and pressure equations are reproduced with the electrons being described by the adiabatic response. Applications to the study of 2-D turbulence show that the heat ux is reduced at a level much smaller than the quasilinear estimate. The particle and...
