Research Abstract

Navier-Stokes cods based on vorticity -velocity formulation and lattice Boltzmann code for in compressible flows, developed in the previous year, were parallelized by using domain decomposition method and implemented on 15 workstation connected via Ethernet networks using MPI/PVM as message passing software.
In order to extend applicability of the incompressible Navier-Stokes code, a code was developed, in this year, based on a combination of solution adaptive hierarchical Cartesian grid method and virtual boundary method for solution of flow past arbitrary shape bodies. In the lattice Boltzmann approach, 9 velocity square lattice 2-dimensional code was extended to 3-dimensions by using 15 velocity cubic lattice model. It was found bat higher parallel speed up was obtained for 15 velocity cubic lattice in an application to direct simulation of homogeneous isotropic turbulence than that in 2-dimensional simulation with 9 velocity square lattice model.
In corporation on non-uniform lattice and extension to multi-phase flow by SC model wear also attemptedin the lattice Boltzmann approach.
These results was presented at Parallel CFD'98 held at Hsinchu, Taiwan and will be presented at Parallel CFD'99 to be hold in Williamsburg, Virginia USA.
