Abstract

This article reports the flow characteristics in an oscillated lid–driven cavity. The mesoscale numerical scheme of the multiple relaxation time lattice Boltzmann method is applied to solve for the fluid flow equation. Our predicted results revealed that the flow behavior is critically dependent on the dimensionless Reynolds number and frequency of the oscillated top lid of the cavity.
