Boltzmann Method

It is known that the Lattice Boltzmann Method is not very effective when it is being used for the high speed compressible viscous flows; especially complex fluid flows around bodies. Different reasons have been reported for this unsuccessfulness; Lacking in required isotropy in the employed lattices and the restriction of having low Mach number in Taylor expansion of the Maxwell Boltzmann distribution as the equilibrium distribution function, might be mentioned as the most important ones. In present study, a new numerical method based on Li et al. scheme is introduced which enables the Lattice BoltzmannMethod to stably simulate the complex flows around a 2D circular cylinder. Furthermore, more stable implementation of boundary conditions in Lattice Boltzmann method is discussed.

Boltzmann Method

Lattice Boltzmann methods (LBM) have become an alternative to conventional computational fluid dynamics (CFD) methods for various systems. In this paper, flow field of mean flow past a circular cylinder was simulated based on the lattice Boltzmann method. The streamline of air past the cylinder illuminated that the fluid adhere on the boundary and doesn’t separate from the surface of cylinder when Re number less than 5. When Re number equal 40, flow separated to form a pair of recirculating eddies can be observed. With the Re number increasing, the trailing vortex length is growth accordingly. When Re number come up to 80, the trailing vortex begin to shed regularly. This result is consistent with the experiment data. Drag coefficient that fluid act on the surface of cylinder was calculated. The calculated results were same as the experiment data. Simulation indicate that LBM can simulate the vortex taking place and shedding effectively.
