Lattice Boltzmann Method for Natural Convection in Anisotropic Porous Media

A lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) is proposed for the simulation of natural convection in anisotropic porous media with the generalized non-Darcy model. The Brinkman-Forchheimer momentum equation is recovered from a kinetic equation for the distribution function, which has a forcing term to introduce...
