LBM-LES of Flow in a diagonally lid-driven 3D cavity (Re = 10000).

In this 3D analog of the 2D cavity, the top-lid is driven with constant velocity in a direction parallel to one of the two diagonals.
The right two videos are results from LES simulation in a lid-driven cavity with a static Smaogrinsky model. Middle: velocity contour on mid-x-y plane; right: velocity contour on mid-x-z plane.
