Abstract
⺠A BGK LBM model is developed to simulate the fluid flow phenomenon in a cavity driven by an oscillating lid. ⺠The effect of Reynolds number and frequency of oscillation on temporal variation of fluid flow has been studied. ⺠An increase in Reynolds number promotes the development of vortices within the cavity. ⺠The number of vortices diminishes as the frequency of oscillation increases. ⺠Phase diagram shows the periodicity of the system.
