Simulation of a 2D Channel Flow Around a Square Obstacle with Lattice-Boltzmann (BGK) Automata
Abstract
Results for time-dependent, viscous, incompressible flows were investigated using the lattice-Boltzmann (BGK) automata. The decay of a synthetic turbulent flow field and the time evolution of an initial vortex were simulated for validation purposes. The focal point was the investigation of the instationary flow around a square obstacle in a two-dimensional channel for a range of Reynolds numbers between 80 and 300 and a blockage ratio of 0.125. The Strouhal number was measured for this case and found to be in the range of data given in the literature.
This paper was presented at the 7th Int. Conf. on the Discrete Simulation of Fluids held at the University of Oxford, 14–18 July 1998.
