Double dispersion, natural convection in an open end cavity simulation via Lattice Boltzmann Method

Effect of a magnetic field on natural convection in an open cavity subjugated to water/alumina nanofluid using Lattice Boltzmann method

“…For more than two decades, Lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) has been demonstrated to be a very effective numerical tool for a broad variety of complex fluid flow phenomena that are problematic for conventional methods [22][23][24][25][26][27][28]. In comparison with traditional methods of computational fluid dynamic, The LBM algorithms are much easier to be implemented especially in complex geometries and multi component flows than traditional methods [29].…”

Lattice Boltzmann analysis of natural convection in a partially heated open ended enclosure for different fluids

“…The basic lattice Boltzmann equation (LBE) for flow and thermal fields [23,28,37,39,40] are expressed as given below:…”

“…The lowest absolute average percentage difference for the experimental and numerical temperature profiles was for the rk − ε t model and the highest was for the sk − ω model. Tables 1 and 2 represent the summary of available literature on the natural convection in open ended as well as differentially heated cavity with wall completely [19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28] and partially heated [29][30][31][32][33][34][35], respectively with their ranges of physical parameters. It can be concluded that from Tables 1 and 2 and aforementioned discussion that huge amount of the literature pertaining to the convection heat transfer characteristics from cavity with one wall completely heated is now available.…”

A Non-Dimensional Lattice Boltzmann Method for direct and porous medium model simulations of 240-tube bundle heat exchangers in a solar storage tank

“…LBM has been applied for natural and mixed convection inside an enclosure by introducing a body force term into the momentum equation for macroscopic Reynolds number up to 2 Â 10 3 and the macroscopic Rayleigh number up to 5 Â 10 6 [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20]. Also, the conjugate heat transfer of a solid and fluid was solved easily with LBM method by a modification of the relaxation time in the energy equation [21,22].…”
