Lattice Boltzmann method for thermal flow simulation on standard lattices
arXiv:cond-mat/0703598 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevE.76.016702
Abstract
The recently introduced consistent lattice Boltzmann model with energy conservation [S. Ansumali, I.V. Karlin, Phys. Rev. Lett. 95, 260605 (2005)] is extended to the simulation of thermal flows on standard lattices. The two-dimensional thermal model on the standard square lattice with nine velocities is developed and validated in the thermal Couette and Rayleigh-Bénard natural convection problems.
