Two-relaxation-time regularized lattice Boltzmann model for Navier-Stokes equations
Abstract
In this paper, we propose a novel two-relaxation-time regularized lattice Boltzmann (TRT-RLB) model for simulating weakly compressible isothermal flows. A free relaxation parameter, , is employed to relax the regularized non-equilibrium third-order terms. Chapman-Enskog analysis reveals that our model can accurately recover the Navier-Stokes equations (NSEs). Theoretical analysis of the Poiseuille flow problem demonstrates that the slip velocity magnitude in the proposed model is controlled by a magic parameter, which can be entirely eliminated under specific values, consistent with the classical TRT model. Our simulations of the double shear layer problem, Taylor-Green vortex flow, and force-driven Poiseuille flow confirm that the stability and accuracy of our model significantly surpass those of both the regularized lattice Boltzmann (RLB) and two-relaxation-time (TRT) models, even under super-high Reynolds numbers as . Concurrently, the TRT-RLB model exhibits superior performance in very high viscosity scenarios. The simulations of creeping flow around a square cylinder demonstrates the model's capability to accurately compute ultra-low Reynolds numbers as . This study establishes the TRT-RLB model as a flexible and robust tool in computational fluid dynamics.
