Computational Fluid Dynamics
Solving the Navier – Stoke Equation
Solving Lattice Boltzmann Equation
In 1821 French engineer Claude-Louis Navier introduced the element of viscosity (friction) for
the more realistic and vastly more difficult problem of viscous fluids
British physicist and mathematician Sir George Gabriel Stokes improved on this work, though
complete solutions were obtained only for the case of simple two-dimensional flows
The Boltzmann equation or Boltzmann transport equation (BTE) describes the statistical
behaviour of a thermodynamic system not in a state of equilibrium, devised by Ludwig
Boltzmann in 1872
Historically, LBM originated from the method of Lattice gas automata (LGA), which was first
introduced in 1973 by Hardy, Pomeau and de Pazzis (HPP)

Computational Fluid Dynamics (Cont.,)
CFD is the simulation of fluids engineering systems using modeling
(mathematical physical problem formulation) and numerical methods
(discretization methods, solvers, numerical parameters, and grid
generations, etc.)
Historically only Analytical Fluid Dynamics (AFD) and Experimental
Fluid Dynamics (EFD).
CFD made possible by the advent of digital computer and advancing
with improvements of computer resources (500 flops, 1947→20
teraflops, 2003)

What are major applications of CFD analysis?
CFD analysis has applications in many industries to design or improve the system, or develop new products or services.
✓ Automobile and aerospace industries
✓ Cement, process and chemical industries
✓ production and manufacturing industries
✓ Turbo-machinery (fan, turbine, compressor, blowers, and pumps etc.)
✓ Thermal and nuclear power plant
✓ Combustion, fire, and environmental pollution
✓ Heating and ventilation of building, car, bus, and civil aircraft
✓ Weather forecasting
✓ Defense and space applications
✓ Biomedical applications
16. 16
Why use CFD
CFD Analysis and Design
1. Simulation-based design instead of “build & test”
✓ More cost effective and more rapid than EFD
✓ CFD provides high-fidelity database for diagnosing flow field
2. Simulation of physical fluid phenomena that are difficult for
experiments
✓ Full scale simulations (e.g., ships and airplanes)
✓ Environmental effects (wind, weather, etc.)

History of CFD
The brief story of Computational Fluid Dynamics can be understood below:
Until 1910: Improvements on mathematical models and numerical methods.
1910 – 1940:
Integration of models and methods to generate numerical solutions based on hand calculations.
1940 – 1950:
Transition to computer-based calculations with early computers (ENIAC)3. Solution for flow around a
cylinder by Kawaguti with a mechanical desk calculator in 1953.
1950 – 1960:
Initial study using computers to model fluid flow based on the Navier-Stokes equations by Los Alamos
National Lab, US. Evaluation of vorticity – stream function method4. First implementation for 2D, transient,
incompressible flow in the world.

History of CFD (Continue)
1960 – 1970:
First scientific paper “Calculation of potential flow about arbitrary bodies” was published about computational analysis of 3D
bodies by Hess and Smith in 19675. Generation of commercial codes. Contribution of various methods such as k-ε turbulence
model, Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian, SIMPLE algorithm which are all still broadly used.
1970 – 1980:
Codes generated by Boeing, NASA and some have unveiled and started to use several yields such as submarines, surface
ships, automobiles, helicopters and aircrafts.
1980 – 1990:
Improvement of accurate solutions of transonic flows in the three-dimensional case by Jameson et. al. Commercial codes
have started to implement through both academia and industry.
1990 – Present:
Thorough developments in Informatics: worldwide usage of CFD virtually in every sector.

The primary goal of LBM is to
build a bridge between the
microscopic and macroscopic
dynamics rather than to dealt
with macroscopic dynamics
directly.
In other words, the goal is to
derive macroscopic equations
from microscopic dynamics by
means of statistics rather than
to solve macroscopic equation.
