Lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) was applied to predict fluid flow and heat transfer characteristics of natural convection in a two-dimensional square cavity driven by two discrete source-sink pairs on one vertical sidewall. The size of sources and sinks was L/4. The arrangement of the sources and sin...
