Lattice Boltzmann methods (LBM) have become an alternative to conventional computational fluid dynamics (CFD) methods for various systems. In this paper, flow field of mean flow past a circular cylinder was simulated based on the lattice Boltzmann method. The streamline of air past the cylinder illuminated that the fluid adhere on the boundary and doesn’t separate from the surface of cylinder when Re number less than 5. When Re number equal 40, flow separated to form a pair of recirculating eddies can be observed. With the Re number increasing, the trailing vortex length is growth accordingly. When Re number come up to 80, the trailing vortex begin to shed regularly. This result is consistent with the experiment data. Drag coefficient that fluid act on the surface of cylinder was calculated. The calculated results were same as the experiment data. Simulation indicate that LBM can simulate the vortex taking place and shedding effectively.

Two-dimensional simulations of channel flow past an array of cylinders are carried out at high Reynolds numbers. Considering the thickness fluctuating effect on the equation of motion, a modified lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) is proposed. Special attention is paid to investigate the thickness fluctuations and vortex shedding mechanisms between 11 cylinders. Results for the velocity and vorticity differences are provided, as well as for the energy density and enstrophy spectra. The numerical results coincide very well with some published experimental data that was obtained by turbulent soap films. The spectra extracted from the velocity and vorticity fields are displayed from simulations, along with the thickness fluctuation spectrum H(k). Our results show that the statistics of thickness fluctuations resemble closely those of a passive scalar in turbulent flows.
