Variable slip coefficient in binary lattice Boltzmann models

Abstract

We present a new method in order to obtain variable slip coefficient in binary lattice Boltzmann models to simulate gaseous flows. We present the Boundary layer theory. We study both the single-and multi-fluid BGK-type models as well. The boundary slip and the Knudsen layer are analyzed in detail. Benchmark simulations are carried out in order to compare the analytical derivation with the numerical results. Excellent agreement is found between the two analytical formalism and the numerical simulations. © Versita Warsaw and Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2008.
