Numerical Simulation of Viscous Flow in a 3D Lid-Driven Cavity Using Lattice Boltzmann Method

Abstract:

A lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) with single-relaxation time and on-site boundary condition is used for the simulation of viscous flow in a three-dimensional (3D) lid-driven cavity. Firstly, this algorithm is validated by compared with the benchmark experiments for a standard cavity, and then the results of a cubic cavity with different inflow angles are presented. Steady results presented are for the inflow angle of and, and the Reynolds number is selected as 500. It is found that for viscous flow under moderate Reynolds number, there exists a primary vortex near the center and a secondly vortex at the lower right corner on each slice when, namely in a standard 3D lid-driven cavity, which cant be found when. So it can be thought that the flow pattern in a 3D lid-driven cavity depends not only on the Reynolds number but also the inflow angle.
