A novel immersed boundary velocity correction–lattice Boltzmann method is presented and validated in this work by its application to simulate the two-dimensional flow over a circular cylinder. The present approach is inspired from the conventional immersed boundary method (IBM). In the conventional IBM, the effect of rigid body on the surrounding flow is modeled through a forcing term, which is...

In this paper, a diffuse-interface immersed boundary method (IBM) is proposed to treat three different thermal boundary conditions (Dirichlet, Neumann, Robin) in thermal flow problems. The novel IBM is implemented combining with the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM). The present algorithm enforces the three types of thermal boundary conditions at the boundary points. Concretely speaking, the IBM f...

A new conserving approach in the context of Immersed Boundary Method (IBM) is presented to simulate one dimensional, incompressible flow in a moving boundary problem. The method employs control volume scheme to simulate the flow field. The concept of ghost node is used at the boundaries to conserve the mass and momentum equations. The Present methodimplements the conservation laws in all cells ...

Abstract. The Immersed Boundary Method (IBM) has been designed by Peskin for the modeling and the numerical approximation of fluid-structure interaction problems. Recently, a finite element version of the IBM as been developed, which offers interesting features for both the analysis of the problem under consideration and the robustness and flexibility of the numerical scheme. In this paper we s...

A STUDY OF IMMERSED BOUNDARY METHOD IN A RIBBED DUCT FOR THE INTERNAL COOLING OF TURBINE BLADES Long He Abstract In this dissertation, Immersed Boundary Method (IBM) is evaluated in ribbed duct geometries to show the potential of simulating complex geometry with a simple structured grid. IBM is first investigated in well-accepted benchmark cases: channel flow and pipe flow with circular crossse...

In this note we present an immersed boundary (IB) method for restricted diffusion with permeable interfaces. These problems arise under a variety of circumstances, e.g., in thermal contact problems [7]. Diffusion in a medium consisting of two regimes separated by permeable boundaries is another example. It is well-known that cell boundaries in a living tissue are permeable to oxygen and water m...

We investigate the dynamics of a flexible, elastic fibre, suspended in a fluid and subjected to a 3D shear flow. Simulations are performed using the “Immersed Boundary Method,” and are distinguished by their ability to capture the hydrodynamic interaction between the fluid and fibre, as well as the detailed structure of the individual fibres. Suspensions of flexible fibres are encountered in ma...
