Abstract

This research is conducted by using physical model and Lattice Gas Automata method for simple flow patterns having different geometry. From physical model, the results are speed pattern and fluid flow permeability. The resulted value of the permeability by using physical model will be compared to the resulted value of the LGA. The compared value of the LGA method is the value with angle 5o, 10o and 15o by using laboratory scale. These angles are chosen due to it’s the lowest error compared to those of other angles. In the physical model the lowest permeability value is gotten from the pattern of straight geometry 60o with value 0.201 x 10-6 m2 and the highest permeability value is from pattern of turn 2 with value 0.341 x 10-6 m2. While by using LGA method the the lowest permeability value is pattern of straight 60o with value 0.209 x 10- 6 m2 while the the highest real permeability value is pattern of turn 2 with value 0.344 x 10-6 m2. From the comparison data of permeability the results of error are 3.74%, 0.7% and 4.2% for the angle of 5o, 10o and 15o, respectively
