For flow noise simulations, the nonreflecting boundary condition (NRBC) is significant to confine the computational domain to a small domain. Lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) has advantages for noise because of its low dissipation, but is limited to the uniform grid. In this paper, an absorbing boundary condition (ABC) based on perfectly matched layer (PML) technique is introduced to LBM. Then PML stability is analyzed and a new strategy is developed to achieve robustness. Invoking the decoupling time integration, the underlying equation for streaming is solved with the nodal discontinuous Galerkin method. Benchmark acoustic problems were used to demonstrate the PML absorption. Moreover, PML parameters, long time behavior and inhomogeneous pseudo mean flow are discussed. The methodology appears to work very well and would be hoped for practical flow noise computation.

In this paper the ability of the Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) is investigated for simulating acoustic problems, especially for the propagation of acoustic waves in a wall bounded region. To treat the wall boundary conditions, a non-equilibrium extrapolation scheme for the LBM is adopted. LBM is next applied to simulate the complex aerodynamic noise generated from a square cylinder. In order to efficiently suppress the disturbances at the computational boundaries, the improved absorbing boundary condition (IABC) is developed in this paper. To validate the flow and acoustic solution of a square cylinder, comparisons between the present LBM and the previous studies are carried out. It is demonstrated that the LBM can efficiently simulate the noise generated from a square cylinder.

By means of the continuity equation of the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations, additional physical arguments for the derivation of a formulation of the no-slip boundary condition for the lattice Boltzmann method for straight walls at rest are obtained. This leads to a boundary condition that is second-order accurate with respect to the grid spacing and conserves mass. In addition, the boundary condition is stable for relaxation frequencies close to two.
