Abstract

In this study, the mixing characteristics in lid-driven cavity flows were studied numerically by using a hybrid lattice Boltzmann method (HLBM). First, we compared the numerical results from single-relaxation-time (LB-SRT) and multi-relaxation-time (LB-MRT) models to examine their reliability. In most of the cavity flow, the results from both the LB-SRT and the LB-MRT models were in good agreement with those using a Navier-Stokes solver for Re=100-5000. However, the LB-MRT model was superior to the LB-SRT model for the simulation of higher Reynolds number flows having a geometrical singularity with much lesser spatial oscillations. For this reason, the LB-MRT model was selected to study the mass transport in lid-driven cavity flows, and it was demonstrated that mass transport in the fluid was activated by a recirculation zone in the cavity, which is connected from the top to the bottom surfaces through two boundary layers. Various mixing characteristics such as the concentration profiles, mean Sherwood (Sh) numbers, and velocity were computed. Finally, the detailed transport mechanism and solutions for the concentration profile in the cavity were presented.

본 연구에서는 혼성 격자볼츠만 방법(HLBM)을 이용하여 상판이 일정한 속도로 움직이는 공동 형상 내부에서의 혼합 특성에 대하여 수치적으로 연구하였다. 먼저, 공동 형상에서 기존의 신뢰성 있는 유동장 결과와의 비교를 통해 LB-SRT 모델과 LB-MRT 모델의 신뢰성을 검토하였다. 두 모델 모두 기존의 연구결과와 유사한 결과를 보였으나, LB-MRT 모델이 LB-SRT 모델보다 높은 Re수에서는 수치적 안정성이 높은 것을 확인하였다. 수치적 안정성이 좋은 LB-MRT 모델을 토대로 유한차분법을 적용한 HLBM을 이용하여 공동 형상 내부에서의 농도장을 수치 해석하였다. Re수와 Pe수를 변화하여 공동 형상 내부의 혼합 특성과 물질 전달 형태에 대하여 파악하였다.
