In order to propose LBM for high Reynolds number fluid flow applications, a subgrid turbulence model for LBM was introduced based on standard Smagorinsky subgrid model and Lattice Bhatnagar-Gross-Krook (LBGK) model. The subgrid LBGK model was subsequently used to simulate the two-dimensional driven cavity flow at high Reynolds numbers. The simulation results including distribution of stream lines, dimensionless velocities distribution, values of stream function, as well as location of vertex center, were compared with benchmark solutions, with satisfactory agreements.展开更多

Interesting flow structures around the jet are detected. The numerical result reveals the existence of four streamwise velocity off-center peaks near the impingement plate, which is different from the rectangular jet impingement. The mechanism of the formation of the off-center velocity peaks and the parameters affecting the flow-field characteristics are discussed by comparison of the computed results with different nozzle-to-plate spacings and Reynolds numbers.展开更多
