The Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) has numerous computational advantages, such as the simplicity of programming, the ability to incorporate microscopic interactions, and the easy parallelization of algorithms. The traditional lattice Boltzmann model has a constraint of small mach number(the velocity of fluid must be less than 0.3 mach). This paper presents a novel lattice Boltzmann method to si...

We propose to stabilize the thermal lattice Boltzmann method by filtering the second- and third-order moments of the collision operator. By means of the Chapman-Enskog expansion, we show that the additional numerical diffusivity diminishes in the low-wavnumber limit. To demonstrate the enhanced stability, we consider a three-dimensional thermal lattice Boltzmann system involving 33 discrete vel...

The lattice Boltzmann equation was introduced about 20 years ago as a new paradigm for computational fluid dynamics. In this paper, we revisit the main formulation of the lattice Boltzmann collision integral (matrix model) and introduce a new two-parametric family of collision operators, which permits us to combine enhanced stability and accuracy of matrix models with the outstanding simplicity...

In this paper, in order to extend the lattice Boltzmann method to deal with more nonlinear equations, a onedimensional (1D) lattice Boltzmann scheme with an amending function for the nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation is proposed. With the Taylor and Chapman-Enskog expansion, the nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation is recovered correctly from the lattice Boltzmann equation. The method is applied on so...

A subgrid turbulence model for the lattice Boltzmann method is proposed for high Reynolds number fluid flow applications. The method, based on the standard Smagorinsky subgrid model and a single-time relaxation lattice Boltzmann method, incorporates the advantages of the lattice Boltzmann method for handling arbitrary boundaries and is easily implemented on parallel machines. The method is appl...

In this paper, by introducing a different distribution function and starting from the Boltzmann equation as well as the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution, we obtain a Boltzmann Bhatnagar-Gross-Krook (BGK) equation for thermal flows with viscous heat dissipation in the incompressible limit. The continuous thermal BGK model is then discretized over both time and phase space to form a lattice BGK mod...

The issue of the thermodynamics of a system of distinguishable particles is discussed in this paper. In constructing the statistical mechanics of distinguishable particles from the definition of Boltzmann entropy, it is found that the entropy is not extensive. The inextensivity leads to the so-called Gibbs paradox in which the mixing entropy of two identical classical gases increases. Lots of l...

In this paper we presented a lattice Boltzmann with square grid for compressible flow problems. Triple level velocity is considered for each cell. Migration step use discrete velocity but continuous parameters are utilized to calculate density, velocity, and energy. So, we called this semi-discrete method. To evaluate the performance of the method the well-known shock tube problem is solved, us...

A three-dimensional lattice Boltzmann model with thirty two discrete velocity distribution functions for viscoelastic fluid is presented in this work. The model is based upon the generalized lattice Boltzmann equation constructed in moment space. The nonlinear equilibria of the model have a number of coupling constants that are free parameters. The dispersion equation of the model is analyzed u...

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...
