A finite difference lattice Boltzmann model which allows us to simulate gas-liquid two-phase flows with large density difference, for instance, 800 times for air and water is considered. Two-particle model is used and the density difference is introduced by changing the acceleration according to the fluid density. Numerical measurement of surface tension agrees well with theoretical predictions. Simulations of two-phase phenomenon for phase-transition is carried out, showing applicability of the model for two-phase flows. The two-dimensional cavitating flow around a board set up in the fluid way is also simulated. As a result, it was confirmed that the FDLB method with two-particle model was effective in numerical simulation of cavitating flow and the bubble periodically grew up at the low pressure area behind the board, in which the fluid condition was influenced by the cavitation number.

Two-dimensional turbulent flows past a square cylinder and cavity noise are simulated by the finite difference lattice Boltzmann method with subgrid turbulence model. The method, based on the standard Smagorinsky subgrid model and a single-time relaxation lattice Boltzmann method, incorporates the advantages of FDLBM for handling arbitrary boundaries. The results are compared with those by the experiments carried out by Noda & Nakayama and Lyn et al. Numerical results agree with the experimental ones. Besides, 2D computation of the cavity noise generated by flow over a cavity at a Mach number of 0.1 and a Reynolds number based on cavity depth of 5000 is calculated. The computation result is well presented a understanding of the physical phenomenon of tonal noise occurred primarily by well-jet shear layer and vortex shedding and an aeroacoustic feedback loop.

Multiphase lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) has been used to simulate the nucleate pool boiling directly. For the phase change model, the thermal model and the Stefan boundary condition were introduced to the isothermal LBM. The phase change model was validated by the bubble growth in a superheated liquid under no gravity. The bubble growth on and departure from a superheated wall has been simulated successfully. The preliminary results showed that the detail process of nucleate pool boiling was in good agreement with the experimental results.

The volume of fluid (VOF) model of FLUENT and the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) are used to simulate two-phase flows. Both methods are validated for static and dynamic bubble test cases and then compared to experimental results. The VOF method does not reduce the spurious currents of the static droplet test and does not satisfy the Laplace law for small droplets at the acceptable level, as compared with the LBM. For single bubble flows, simulations are executed for various Eotvos numbers, Morton numbers and Reynolds numbers, and the results of both methods agree well with the experiments in the case of low Eotvos numbers. For high Eotvos numbers, the VOF results deviated from the experiments. For multiple bubbles, the bubble flow characteristics are related by the wake of the leading bubble. The coaxial and oblique coalescence of the bubbles are simulated successfully and the subsequent results are presented. In conclusion, the LBM performs better than the VOF method.

Free energy based lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) has been used to simulate the contact angle and the bubble necking with large density ratio. LBM with the proper contact angle model is able to reduce the spurious currents and eliminate the singularity in the contact lines. The numerical results of the contact angles are satisfied with the Youngs law. For bubble necking flows, simulations are executed for various viscosities and contact angles. The phenomena of the bubble necking are simulated successfully and the subsequent results are presented. The present method is also applicable to the nucleate boiling flows.

In this research, the finite difference lattice Boltzmann method(FDLBM) is used to analyze gravity currents in the lock exchange configuration that occur in many natural and man-made situations. At a lock those are seen when a gate is suddenly opened, and, in the atmosphere, when the thunderstorm outflows make a cold front. At estuaries in the ocean, the phenomenon is found between fresh water from a river and salt water in the sea. Since such interesting phenomena were recognized, pioneers have challenged to make them clear by conducing both experiments and analysis. Most of them were about the currents of liquid or Boussinesq fluids, which are assumed as incompressible. Otherwise, the difference in density of two fluids is small. The finite difference lattice Boltzmann method has been a powerful tool to simulate the flow of compressible fluids. Also, numerical predictions using FDLBM to clarify the gravity currents of compressible fluids exhibit all features, but typically observed in experimental flows near the gravity current head, including the lobe-and-cleft structure at the leading edge.

The indoor environments in high-rise buildings are generally well enclosed by defined boundary conditions. Here, a numerical simulation method based on the Lattice Boltzmann method (LBM), which aims to model and simulate the turbulent flow accurately in an enclosed environment, and its comparison with traditional computational fluid dynamics (CFD) results, are presented in this paper. CFD has become a powerful tool for predicting and evaluating enclosed airflows with the rapid advance in computer capacity and speed, and various types of CFD turbulence modeling and its application and validation have been reported. The LBM is a relatively new method; it involves solving of the discrete Boltzmann equation to simulate the fluid flow with a collision model instead of solving Navier-Stokes equations. In this study, the LBM-based scheme of flow pattern and particle dispersion analyses are validated using the benchmark test case of two- and three-dimensional and isothermal conditions (IEA/Annex 20 case); the prediction accuracy and advantages are also discussed by comparison with the results of CFD.

선체 부가물에서 발생하는 유동소음은 자체소음 관점에서 소나의 성능과 직결되고, 추진기 및 방향타와 상호작용을 통해 2차 소음원을 야기해 근접장 범위의 엄밀한 분석이 요구된다. 하지만 유동소음 해석에 적용되는 기존의 음향상사법은 음향 신호의 전파를 직접 모사하지 않는 간접법에 해당해 회절, 반사, 산란 특성을 고려할 수 없으며, 근접장 해석이 제한적이다. 본 연구에서는 격자 볼츠만 기법을 적용해 수중환경 유동소음의 전파과정을 직접 모사하였다. 격자 볼츠만 기법은 분자의 충돌과 흐름 과정을 통해 유동소음을 해석하는 기법으로, 압축성과 낮은 소산율, 낮은 분산율의 특성을 가지고 있어 소음해석에 적합하다. 선체 부가물 형상을 대상으로 RANS 해석을 통해 유동소음원을 도출하고, 유동-음향 경계면을 적용한 격자 볼츠만 기법으로 유동소음의 전파과정을 직접적으로 모사했다. 도출된 결과를 수음점의 위치에 따라 FW-H 결과 및 유체동압력 결과와 비교를 통해 근접장에서 타 기법 대비 격자 볼츠만 기법의 유용성을 확인했다.

본 연구에서는 이중구조팬의 소음특성을 알아보고 소음저감 방법으로 알려진 톱니형 뒷전(Serrated Trailing Egde)을 적용하여 이중구조팬의 소음을 저감시켰다. 해석에는 Lattice Boltzmann Method(LBM)를 이용한 비정상 전산해석을 수행하였으며 해석의 타당성을 평가하기 위하여 시험을 실시하였다. 이중구조팬은 일반적인 팬처럼 단일의 Blade Passing Frequency(BPF)를 갖는 것이 아니라 내부팬과 외부팬 각각의 BPF가 서로 다른 음역대에서 나타나는 것을 확인 하였다. 톱니형 뒷전을 내부팬에 적용하여 경계층에서의 구속와류와 뒷전에서의 와류흘림이 억제 또는 분산되고 광역소음뿐만 아니라 팬의 토크도 저감되었다.

In this paper, the fluid flow behavior past a pair of rectangular cylinders placed in a two dimensional horizontal channel has been investigated using Lattice-Boltzmann Method(LBM). The LBM has built up on the D2Q9 model and the single relaxation time method called the Lattice-BGK(Bhatnagar-Gross-Krook)model. Streamlines, velocity, vorticity and pressure contours are provided to analyze the important characteristics of the flow field for a wide range of non dimensional parameters that present in our simulation. Special attention is paid to the effect of spacing(d) between two cylinders and the blockage ratio A(=h/H), where H is the channel height and h is the rectangular cylinder height. for different Reynolds numbers. The first cylinder is called upstream cylinder and the second one as downstream cylinder. The downstream fluid flow fields have been more influenced by its blockage ratios(A) and Reynolds numbers(Re) whereas the upstream flow patterns(in front of downstream cylinder) by the gap length(d) between two cylinders. Moreover, it is observed that after a certain gap, both upstream and downstream flow patterns are almost similar size and shape. The simulation result has been compared with analytical solution and it is found to be in excellent agreement.
