Lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) was applied to predict fluid flow and heat transfer characteristics of free convection in a two-dimensional square cavity driven by three discrete source-sink pairs on one vertical sidewall. The size of sources and sinks was L/6. The arrangement of the sources and sink...
