TL;DR: It is shown that discrete lattice effects must be considered in the introduction of a force into the lattice Boltzmann equation, and a representation of the forcing term is proposed that derived the Navier-Stokes equation through the Chapman-Enskog expansion.
Abstract: We show that discrete lattice effects must be considered in the introduction of a force into the lattice Boltzmann equation. A representation of the forcing term is then proposed. With the representation, the Navier-Stokes equation is derived from the lattice Boltzmann equation through the Chapman-Enskog expansion. Several other existing force treatments are also examined.

TL;DR: In this article, a boundary treatment for curved walls in lattice Boltzmann method is proposed, where the distribution function at a wall node who has a link across the physical boundary is decomposed into its equilibrium and nonequilibrium parts.
Abstract: A boundary treatment for curved walls in lattice Boltzmann method is proposed. The distribution function at a wall node who has a link across the physical boundary is decomposed into its equilibrium and nonequilibrium parts. The equilibrium part is then approximated with a fictitious one where the boundary condition is enforced, and the nonequilibrium part is approximated using a first-order extrapolation based on the nonequilibrium part of the distribution on the neighboring fluid node. Numerical results show that the present treatment is of second-order accuracy, and has well-behaved stability characteristics.

TL;DR: A lattice Boltzmann model is proposed for isothermal incompressible flow in porous media and the key point is to include the porosity into the equilibrium distribution, and add a force term to the evolution equation to account for the linear and nonlinear drag forces of the medium.
Abstract: In this paper a lattice Boltzmann model is proposed for isothermal incompressible flow in porous media. The key point is to include the porosity into the equilibrium distribution, and add a force term to the evolution equation to account for the linear and nonlinear drag forces of the medium (the Darcy's term and the Forcheimer's term). Through the Chapman-Enskog procedure, the generalized Navier-Stokes equations for incompressible flow in porous media are derived from the present lattice Boltzmann model. The generalized two-dimensional Poiseuille flow, Couette flow, and lid-driven cavity flow are simulated using the present model. It is found the numerical results agree well with the analytical and/or the finite-difference solutions.

TL;DR: In this article, a thermal lattice BGK model is developed for the Boussinesq incompressible fluids, where the velocity field and the temperature field are solved using two independent BGK equations, respectively, and then combined into one coupled model for the whole system.
Abstract: In this paper, a thermal lattice BGK model is developed for the Boussinesq incompressible fluids. The basic idea is to solve the velocity field and the temperature field using two independent lattice BGK equations, respectively, and then combine them into one coupled model for the whole system. The porous plate problem and the two-dimensional natural convection flow in a square cavity with Pr=0.71 and various of Rayleigh numbers are simulated using the model. The numerical results are found to be in good agreement with the analytical solutions or those of previous studies. Copyright © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

TL;DR: Comparing the results to the fastest reported vectorized Cray Y-MP and C90 algorithm shows that the current generation of parallel machines is competitive with conventional vector supercomputers even for small problems.
Abstract: Three parallel algorithms for classical molecular dynamics are presented. The first assigns each processor a fixed subset of atoms; the second assigns each a fixed subset of inter-atomic forces to compute; the third assigns each a fixed spatial region. The algorithms are suitable for molecular dynamics models which can be difficult to parallelize efficiently—those with short-range forces where the neighbors of each atom change rapidly. They can be implemented on any distributed-memory parallel machine which allows for message-passing of data between independently executing processors. The algorithms are tested on a standard Lennard-Jones benchmark problem for system sizes ranging from 500 to 100,000,000 atoms on several parallel supercomputers--the nCUBE 2, Intel iPSC/860 and Paragon, and Cray T3D. Comparing the results to the fastest reported vectorized Cray Y-MP and C90 algorithm shows that the current generation of parallel machines is competitive with conventional vector supercomputers even for small problems. For large problems, the spatial algorithm achieves parallel efficiencies of 90% and a 1840-node Intel Paragon performs up to 165 faster than a single Cray C9O processor. Trade-offs between the three algorithms and guidelines for adapting them to more complex molecular dynamics simulations are also discussed.

TL;DR: This work reviews many significant developments over the past decade of the lattice-Boltzmann method and discusses higherorder boundary conditions and the simulation of microchannel flow with finite Knudsen number.
Abstract: With its roots in kinetic theory and the cellular automaton concept, the lattice-Boltzmann (LB) equation can be used to obtain continuum flow quantities from simple and local update rules based on particle interactions. The simplicity of formulation and its versatility explain the rapid expansion of the LB method to applications in complex and multiscale flows. We review many significant developments over the past decade with specific examples. Some of the most active developments include the entropic LB method and the application of the LB method to turbulent flow, multiphase flow, and deformable particle and fiber suspensions. Hybrid methods based on the combination of the Eulerian lattice with a Lagrangian grid system for the simulation of moving deformable boundaries show promise for more efficient applications to a broader class of problems. We also discuss higherorder boundary conditions and the simulation of microchannel flow with finite Knudsen number. Additionally, the remarkable scalability of the LB method for parallel processing is shown with examples. Teraflop simulations with the LB method are routine, and there is no doubt that this method will be one of the first candidates for petaflop computational fluid dynamics in the near future.

TL;DR: The resulting discrete Boltzmann models are based on a kinetic representation of the fluid dynamics, hence the drawbacks in conventional higher-order hydrodynamic formulations can be avoided.
Abstract: We present in detail a theoretical framework for representing hydrodynamic systems through a systematic discretization of the Boltzmann kinetic equation. The work is an extension of a previously proposed formulation. Conventional lattice Boltzmann models can be shown to be directly derivable from this systematic approach. Furthermore, we provide here a clear and rigorous procedure for obtaining higher-order approximations to the continuum Boltzmann equation. The resulting macroscopic moment equations at each level of the systematic discretization give rise to the Navier–Stokes hydrodynamics and those beyond. In addition, theoretical indications to the order of accuracy requirements are given for each discrete approximation, for thermohydrodynamic systems, and for fluid systems involving long-range interactions. All these are important for complex and micro-scale flows and are missing in the conventional Navier–Stokes order descriptions. The resulting discrete Boltzmann models are based on a kinetic representation of the fluid dynamics, hence the drawbacks in conventional higher-order hydrodynamic formulations can be avoided.
