摘要
The multi-relaxation time lattice Boltzmann method is used to perform direct numerical simulations of laminar and turbulent pressure-driven flows within a channel with hill-shape periodic constriction for the first time. The simulations are conducted on a graphics processing unit cluster with two-dimensional domain decomposition to accelerate the computation. The hill-shape boundary is represented using the interpolated bounce back scheme. However, the scheme generates mass leakage across the boundary, which is more pronounced in the turbulent flow regime, and this may produce diverging solutions for turbulent flows. The mass leakage due to the local mass imbalance along the curved boundary is solved by modifying the distribution functions locally or globally, and both predict similar velocity distributions. Since the global correction method is more computing time-consuming, the local correction method is adopted. The present numerical implementation's capability is first validated by performing direct numerical simulations of turbulent channel flow at Reτ = 180, and the current predicted results agree well with the benchmark solutions. Direct numerical simulations are further conducted for the turbulent flow over the periodic hill at Reh = 2800. Both the mean velocity and turbulent stress compare favorably with the benchmark solutions. The present simulation also correctly predicts the turbulence splatting effect near the windward hill. Both phenomena are in good accordance with the benchmark solutions.
