A new video shows the results of a famous benchmark problem in CFD. The lid driven cavity problem illustrates a flow in a cuboid. The top wall moves from left to right with a constant velocity, while the other walls are fixed. The fundamental feature of this often studied fluid flow problem is the formation of a large primary vortex in the center and two smaller vortices near the two lower edges. Different techniques are applied to visualize the fluid flow including the vortices with the cavity. The source code of this simulations can be found in the examples section of the latest release of OpenLB. You will find more information in our show case section. If you have a nice video which you have obtained with OpenLB, please let us know and we will link it or upload it. Please contact us.
