An Onsager-like Relation for the Lattice Boltzmann Method
Abstract
Description
An Onsager-like relation is proposed as a new criterion for constructing and analysing the lattice Boltzmann (LB) method. For LB models obeying the relation, we analyse their linearized stability, establish their diffusive limit, and find new constraints for those with free parameters. The new relation seems of fundamental importance for the LB method.
