Abstract

Several boundary techniques were analyzed for imposing no-slip walls in lattice-Boltzmann schemes. Specifically, the accuracy in the velocity field with respect to the spatial discretization was studied analytically and numerically. It was found that the method was first-order accurate in space. Furthermore, the analysis showed that the error depends on the relaxation parameter and the volume of the boundary cells.
