Lattice Boltzmann Method for Numerical Simulation of Circular Tube Forced Convection

This paper established the thermal Lattice Boltzmann model of fluid flow and heat transfer, which is based on double lattice Boltzmann distribution model [. The temperature distribution adopted the higher accuracy velocity model. Based on this thermal lattice Boltzmann model, this paper simulated forced convection of circular tube fluid. Comparing the simulation results with the traditional CFD calculation results, we could find that the thermal lattice Boltzmann method have unique advantages in effectiveness and flexibility than the traditional calculation method.
