The Artificial Compressibility Method (ACM) for the incompressible NavierStokes equations is (link-wise) reformulated (referred to as LW-ACM) by a finite set of discrete directions (links) on a regular Cartesian mesh, in analogy with the Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM). The main advantage is the possibility of exploiting well established technologies originally developed for LBM and classical co...

A boundary condition-implemented immersed boundary-lattice Boltzmann method (IB-LBM) is presented in this work. The present approach is an improvement to the conventional IB-LBM. In the conventional IB-LBM, the no-slip boundary condition is only approximately satisfied. As a result, there is flow penetration to the solid boundary. Another drawback of conventional IB-LBM is the use of Dirac delt...

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to present a fast and bare bones implementation numerical method for quickly simulating turbulent thermal flows on GPUs. work also validates earlier research showing that the lattice Boltzmann (LBM) suitable complex flows. Design/methodology/approach A dual hydrodynamic (D3Q27) (D3Q7) multiple-relaxation time LBM model capable DNS calculations implemented in...

Algorithms with low computational intensity show interesting performance and power consumption behavior on multicore processors. We choose the lattice-Boltzmann method (LBM) as a prototype for this scenario in order to show if and how single-chip performance and power characteristics can be generalized to the highly parallel case. LBM is an algorithm for CFD simulations that has gained populari...

Mixed convection heat transfer in two-dimensional liddriven rectangular cavity filled with air (Pr =0.71) is studied numerically. A hybrid scheme with multiple relaxation time Lattice Boltzmann Method (MRT-LBM) is used to obtain the velocity field while the temperature field is deduced from energy balance equation by using the Finite Difference Method (FDM). The main objective of this work is t...

The link-wise artificial compressibility method (LW-ACM) is a novel formulation of the artificial compressibility method for the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations showing strong analogies with the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM). The LW-ACM operates on regular Cartesian meshes and is therefore well-suited for massively parallel processors such as graphics processing units (GPUs). In this wo...

In this paper, we present simulation results of twoand three-dimensional motions of drops in a shear flow based on the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM), where a macroscopic fluid flow results from averaging collisions and propagations of mesoscopic particles. The binary fluid model in LBM used here can reproduce two-phase interface in a self-organizing way by repulsive interaction between particl...

In this work, for better understanding of drug delivery systems, blood flow over a ceramic nanoparticle is investigated through microvessels. Drug is considered as a nanoparticle coated with the rigid ceramic. Due to the low characteristic size in the microvessel, the fluid flow is not continuum and the no-slip boundary condition cannot be applied. To solve this problem lattice Boltzmann method...

Several algorithmic extensions to the Lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) that permits its application to rarefied gas flows are presented. The accuracy of the new method is first demonstrated by validating the desired power-law viscosity-temperature relationship over the range of power-law exponents typically found in single component fluids. Next, the plane Poiseuille flow scenario is simulated fo...

We consider a pressure (density) in a square flume solid boundaries and no-slip format condition formulation are introduced to investigate cavitation bubble for the two-dimensional lattice Boltzmann method (LBM). Using the coupling Carnahan-Starling equation of state (C-S EOS) and exact difference method (EDM) based on modified Shan-Chen model, the whole process of bubble collapse was observed ...
