Disclosed are techniques for scalar solvers in flow simulations that include simulating using a scalar lattice velocity set in a computing system, movement of scalar particles representing a scalar quantity in a volume of fluid, with the scalar particles carried by flow particles of the volume of fluid, and with the movement of the scalar particles causing collisions among the scalar particles; and evaluating, a non-equilibrium post-collide scalar distribution function of a specified order that is representative of the scalar collision.

Computer system for simulating physical process using lattice Boltzmann based scalar transport enforcing Galilean invariance for scalar transport

Techniques for simulating fluid flow using a lattice Boltzmann (LB) approach for solving scalar transport equations and solving for total energy are described. In addition to the lattice Boltzmann functions for fluid flow the techniques include modifying a set of state vectors of the particles by adding specific total energy to states of particles that will be advected and subtracting the specific total energy from states of particles that will not be advected over a time interval and performing advection of the particles according to the modified set of states.

Lattice Boltzmann solver enforcing total energy conservation

Described are computer implemented techniques for simulating elements of a fluid flow. These techniques include storing in a memory state vectors for a plurality of voxels, the state vectors comprising a plurality of entries that correspond to particular momentum states of a plurality of possible momentum states at a voxel, storing in a memory a representation of at least one surface that is sized and oriented independently of the size and orientation of the voxels, perform interaction operations on the state vectors, the interaction operations modelling interactions between elements of different momentum states, perform surface interaction operations on the representation of the surface, the surface interaction operations modelling interactions between the surface and substantially all elements of voxels, and performing move operations on the state vectors to reflect movement of elements to new voxels.
