In this article, the natural convection flow in eccentric annulus is simulated numerically by Lattice Boltzmann Model (LBM) based on double-population approach. A numerical strategy presents for dealing with curved boundaries of second order accuracy for both velocity and temperature fields. The effect of vertical, horizontal, and diagonal eccentricity at various locations is examined at Ra = 10(4) and sigma = 2. Velocity and temperature distributions as well as Nusselt number are obtained. The results show that the average Nusselt number increases when the inner cylinder moves downward regardless of the radial position. The validation with previous studies shows that double-population approach can evaluate the velocity and temperature fields in curved boundaries with a good accuracy. (C) 2010 Elsevier Masson SAS.
