A Lattice Boltzmann method is applied to demonstrate the comparison results of simulating natural convection in an open end cavity using different hydrodynamic and thermal boundary conditions. The Prandtl number in the present simulation is 0.71, Rayleigh numbers are 104,105 and 106 and viscosities are selected 0.02 and 0.05. On-Grid bounce-back method with first-order accuracy and non-slip met...

This work is a primary achievement in studying the CO2 and N2–oil systems. To predict gas-liquid relative permeability curves, a Shan-Chen type multicomponent multiphase lattice Boltzmann model for two-phase flow through 2D porous media is developed. Periodic and bounce back boundary conditions are applied to the model with the Guo scheme for the external body force (i.e.,...

The formation and propagation of singularities for Boltzmann equation in bounded domains has been an important question in numerical studies as well as in theoretical studies. Consider the nonlinear Boltzmann solution near Maxwellians under in-flow, diffuse, or bounce-back boundary conditions. We demonstrate that discontinuity is created at the non-convex part of the grazing boundary, then prop...

This report presents theoretical estimates of the Power Density levels which may be reached inside trains. Two possible sources of high levels of radiation are discussed. The first one arises since the walls of the wagons are metallic and therefore bounce back almost all radiation impinging on them. The second is due to the simultaneous emission of a seemingly large number of nearby telephones....

Methods: Using the concept mapping approach and through team effort, we developed the Essential Resilience Scale (ERS, 15 items) with a conceptual framework consisting of three components (anticipation, flexibility and bounce-back) and three subscales (physical, emotional and social, 5 items per subscale). We tested the ERS with an adult sample (18-45 years old) in Mainland China consisting of ...

Higher Education institutions are not strangers to sudden shocks or dips in the economic environment that sneaks upon them and create budget cuts job losses due poor enrolments, but quite often these situations have been gradual rather than abrupt, most circumstances had provided higher education space weed out unviable courses unsustainable practices. The same cannot be said of Corona Virus pa...

this work is a primary achievement in studying the co2 and n2–oil systems. to predict gas-liquid relative permeability curves, a shan-chen type multicomponent multiphase lattice boltzmann model for two-phase flow through 2d porous media is developed. periodic and bounce back boundary conditions are applied to the model with the guo scheme for the external body force (i.e., the pressure gradient...

A new implementation of boundary condition based on the half-covolume and bounce-back rule for the non-equilibrium distribution function for the finite volume LBM is proposed here. The numerical simulation results for the expansion channel flow and driven cavity problem indicate that this method is workable for arbitrary meshes. In addition, the fourth order Runge–Kutta scheme is found to be a ...
