Abstract

This paper deals with the implementation of a general methodology for modeling 2D fluid flows in Modelica applying the Cascaded Digital Lattice Boltzmann Method. This approach models fluid flow as collective dynamics of fictitious particles on the nodes of a regular lattice. The various elements needed for simulation are described in Modelica and generic test cases are set up. The method is able to deal with simple scenarios where the powerful capabilities of advanced CFD tools are not needed.
