Book Description

Lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) is a relatively new simulation technique for the modeling of complex fluid systems and has attracted interest from researchers in computational physics. Unlike the traditional CFD methods, which solve the conservation equations of macroscopic properties (i.e., mass, momentum, and energy) numerically, LBM models the fluid consisting of fictive particles, and such particles perform consecutive propagation and collision processes over a discrete lattice mesh.

This book will cover the fundamental and practical application of LBM. The first part of the book consists of three chapters starting form the theory of LBM, basic models, initial and boundary conditions, theoretical analysis, to improved models. The second part of the book consists of six chapters, address applications of LBM in various aspects of computational fluid dynamic engineering, covering areas, such as thermo-hydrodynamics, compressible flows, multicomponent/multiphase flows, microscale flows, flows in porous media, turbulent flows, and suspensions.

With these coverage LBM, the book intended to promote its applications, instead of the traditional computational fluid dynamic method.

Editorial Reviews

Review

The book presents a very good and self-contained description of the LBM, including the basic ideas, various models, initial and boundary conditions, theoretical analysis and numerical treatment, basic and improved models, algorithms, and several problems and applications. The book is very well written, rigorously presented, and an important contribution to the field. It is very well motivated by various interesting and important applications in fluid mechanics and engineering. This book is recommended to all researchers interested in the LBM and its applications. —Mathematical Reviews
