lattice Boltzmann method, natural convection, laminar flow, benchmark solution, secondary parameters effectsAbstract
The lattice Boltzmann method based on the BGK model has been used to simulate laminar natural convection in a heated rectangular cavity on the uniform grid. The hydrodynamic and thermal fields are solved by using the double populations approach. A general benchmark has been carried out to show the effects of secondary parameters at their wide range. Excellent agreement is obtained by comparison with available literature.
