description |
This thesis presents a numerical study of flow behavior from a heated
concentric annulus cylinder at various Rayleigh number Ra, Prandtl number Pr and
aspect ratio of the outer and inner cylinders. The finite different lattice Boltzmann
method (FDLBM) numerical scheme is developed to improve the computational
efficiency and numerical stability of the conventional method. The proposed
FDLBM applied UTOPIA approach (third order accuracy in space) to study the
temperature distribution and the vortex formation in the annulus. D2Q9 velocity
model was coupled with D2Q4 velocity model to represent the density and internal
energy distribution function respectively. The comparison of the flow pattern and
temperature distribution for every case via streamline, vortices and temperature
distribution contour with published paper in literature were carried out for the
validation purposes. Current investigation concluded that the UTOPIA FDLBM is an
efficient approach for the current problem in hand and good agreement with the
benchmark solution |
