An algorithm has been developed for incorporating the effects of temperature into lattice Boltzmann simulations. Instead of modeling the internal energy as a moment of the distribution describing the flow of mass and momentum, the internal energy is modeled as a scalar field using a second distribut

We quantitatively evaluate the capability and accuracy of the lattice Boltzmann equation (LBE) for modeling flow through porous media. In particular, we conduct a comparative study of the LBE models with the multiple-relaxation-time (MRT) and the Bhatnagar-Gross-Krook (BGK) single-relaxation-time (S
A simple lattice Boltzmann model is developed for two-dimensional combustion simulations. In this model the time step and the fluid particle speed can be adjusted dynamically, depending on the "particle characteristic temperature". The algorithm is still a simple process of hopping from one grid poi
Consistent 2D and 3D thermal boundary conditions for thermal lattice Boltzmann simulations are proposed. The boundary unknown energy distribution functions are made functions of known energy distribution functions and correctors, where the correctors at the boundary nodes are obtained directly from
We present detailed analysis of a lattice Boltzmann approach to model time-dependent Newtonian flows. The aim of this study is to find optimized simulation parameters for a desired accuracy with minimal computational time. Simulation parameters for fixed Reynolds and Womersley numbers are studied. W
