In this research project, the application of the Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) as a simulation tool for nanofluid thermal flow in two-dimensional enclosures is studied. The goal is to develop a comprehensive LBM simulation model that is applicable to various cases in the field of nanofluid heat transfer. The research scope includes incompressible steady flow in enclosures with complex shapes that can have multiple flow sections and curved boundaries. Therefore, a program code is constructed for an LBM model that can simulate fluid flow and heat transfer in a wide range of enclosures with complex geometries.
