Results of direct numerical (DNS) and large eddy simulation (LES) of turbulent longitudinal flow in rod bundles are presented using the lattice Boltzmann method with the Bhatnagar–Gross–Krook collision operator [P.L. Bhatnagar, E.P. Gross, M. Krook, A model for collision processes in gases....

We present a qualitative analysis of the flow pattern in cerebral aneurysms and the effect on the velocity reduction of stent implantation. We use the Lattice Boltzmann (LB) method, which implements a mesoscopic dynamics of the interactions between fictitious particles. LB provides an efficient...

The classical Chapman–Enskog expansion is performed for the recently proposed finite-volume formulation of lattice Boltzmann equation (LBE) method [D.V. Patil, K.N. Lakshmisha, Finite volume TVD formulation of lattice Boltzmann simulation on unstructured mesh, J. Comput. Phys. 228 (2009)...

A new multiphase lattice Boltzmann model based on the cascaded collision operator is developed to study the spinodal decomposition of critical quenches in the inertial hydrodynamic regime. The proposed lattice Boltzmann model is able to investigate simulations of multiphase spinodal...

In this paper, a lattice Boltzmann model with an amending function is proposed for the generalized Kuramoto–Sivashinsky equation that has the form ut+uux+αuxx+βuxxx+γuxxxx=0. With the Chapman–Enskog expansion, the governing evolution equation is recovered correctly from the continuous...

A new lattice Boltzmann model within the framework of D2Q9 lattices for Bingham plastics is proposed. The essence of the present model lies in incorporation of the effect of local shear rate into the lattice equilibrium distribution function. With this arrangement, particle distribution...

We present the numerical results of simulations of complex fluids under shear flow. We employ a mixed approach which combines the lattice Boltzmann method for solving the Navier–Stokes equation and a finite difference scheme for the convection–diffusion equation. The evolution in time of...

For microchannel flow simulation, the slip boundary model is very important to guarantee the accuracy of the solution. In this paper, a new slip model, the Langmuir slip model, instead of the popularly used Maxwell slip model, is incorporated into the lattice Boltzmann (LB) method through the...

Lattice Boltzmann (LB) simulations are conducted to obtain the detailed hydrodynamics in a variety of blood vessel setups, including a prototype stented channel and four human coronary artery geometries based on the images obtained from real patients. For a model of stented flow involving an...

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,...
