Abstract

An elastic-collision scheme is developed to achieve slip and semi-slip boundary conditions for lattice Boltzmann methods. Like the bounce-back scheme, the proposed scheme is efficient, robust and generally suitable for flows in arbitrary complex geometries. It involves an equivalent level of computation effort to the bounce-back scheme. The new scheme is verified by predicting wind-driven circulating flows in a dish-shaped basin and a flow in a strongly bent channel, showing good agreement with analytical solutions and experimental data. The capability of the scheme for simulating flows through multiple bodies has also been demonstrated.
