About fluid forces computation for Volume Penalization coupled with Lattice Boltzmann method (VP-LBM)
Abstract
In this paper, two different approaches fluid forces computation approaches are compared in the frame of Volume Penalization - Lattice Boltzmann Method (VP-LBM). The first method, the momentum exchange method, uses the variation of the distribution functions near the fluid solid interface, while the second one, the stress integration method, allows direct integration of fluid forces onto this interface. Applied to the VP-LBM, which consists in penalizing the solid in the LBM, these two methods lead to significantly different results. The tests are performed to study on one hand the lift and drag coefficients of a Naca 0012 airfoil at different angles of attack, at Reynolds number 1000, and on the other hand, the particle sedimentation under gravity in a channel.
