We construct a system of nonequilibrium entropy limiters for the lattice Boltzmann methods (LBM). These limiters erase spurious oscillations without blurring of shocks, and do not affect smooth solutions. In general, they do the same work for LBM as flux limiters do for finite differences,...

Body force modeling is studied in the Generalized Newtonian (GN) fluid flow simulation using a single relaxation time lattice Boltzmann (LB) method. First, in a shear thickening Poiseuille flow, the necessity for studying body force modeling in the LB method is explained. Then, a parametric...

A non-perturbative algebraic theory of the lattice Boltzmann method is developed based on the symmetry of a product. It involves three steps: (i) Derivation of admissible lattices in one spatial dimension through a matching condition which imposes restricted extension of higher-order Gaussian...

In recent years, the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) has become an alternative and attractive approach to simulate numerous fluid flow problems. A colloidal mixture of nano-sized particles in a base liquid called nanofluid, which is the new generation of heat transfer fluid for various heat...

A pressure (density) and a corner no-slip boundary condition formulation are introduced for the two-dimensional lattice Boltzmann method and numerically tested for the Hagen–Poiseuille flow case in this work. Both formulations are derived independently of the equilibrium distribution function...

In this paper, the Immersed Moving Boundary-Lattice Boltzmann (IMB-LB) method is compared with the single relaxation time and multiple-relaxation-time versions of the Immersed Boundary-Lattice Boltzmann (IB-LB) method in terms of the amount of numerical velocity slip produced on solid...

In this paper, a rigid thickless lamina is immersed in a quiescent viscous fluid and it undergoes transverse finite amplitude harmonic oscillations near a solid surface. The surrounding flow physics is computed through the lattice Boltzmann method. In order to account for the presence of the...

A novel lattice Boltzmann model for two-phase fluids is presented. We begin with the two-body BBGKY equation, and perform a coordinate transformation to split it into a Boltzmann equation for the one-body distribution, coupled to a kinetic equation for the correlation function. The coupling is...

The simulation of a stationary fluid flow past an obstacle by means of a lattice Boltzmann method is discussed. The problem of finding appropriate boundary conditions on the boundaries of the truncated numerical domain is addressed by a method recently discussed in the literature, based on a...

The lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) for multicomponent immiscible fluids is applied to simulations of the deformation and breakup of a particle-cluster aggregate in shear flows. In the simulations, the solid particle is modeled by a droplet with strong interfacial tension and large viscosity. The...
