摘　　要：Dynamic fluid-solid interactions are widely found in chemical engineering, such as in particle-laden flows, which usually contain complex moving boundaries. The immersed boundary method （IBM） is a convenient approach to handle fluid-solid interactions with complex geometries. In this work, Uhlmann＇s direct-forcing IBM is improved and implemented on a supercomputer with CPU-GPU hybrid architec- ture. The direct-forcing IBM is modified as follows： the Poisson＇s equation for pressure is solved before evaluation of the body force, and the force is only distributed to the Cartesian grids inside the immersed boundary. A multidirect forcing scheme is used to evaluate the body force. These modifications result in a divergence-free flow field in the fluid domain and the no-slip boundary condition at the immersed boundary simultaneously. This method is implemented in an explicit finite-difference fractional-step scheme, and validated by 2D simulations of lid-driven cavity flow, Couette flow between two concentric cylinders and flow over a circular cylinder. Finally, the method is used to simulate the sedimentation of two circular particles in a channel. The results agree very well with previous experimental and numerical data, and are more accurate than the conventional direct-forcing method, especially in the vicinity of a moving boundary.Dynamic fluid-solid interactions are widely found in chemical engineering, such as in particle-laden flows, which usually contain complex moving boundaries.
