Computer Simulation of a Fluid Flow through the Declined Porous Structure

Article Preview

Abstract:

Computer simulation of a fluid flow through the declined porous structure is presented in the paper. The hypothesis related to the curious behaviour of the fluid flow inside assembled filters is verified using Lattice Gas Cellular Automata approach. Based on a set of computer simulations the reorganization of the fluid flow inside declined porous structure was obtained for different simulation setups. The results obtained from the computer simulation have shown that LGCA model is not only suitable for a theoretical prediction of a fluid flow inside porous structures but also it can be used as a visualization tool.
