    An accuracy analysis of the cascaded lattice Boltzmann method for the 1D advection-diffusion equation
    (Wydawnictwa AGH, 2020) Straka, Robert; Sharma, Keerti Vardhan
    We analyze higher order error terms in a modified partial differential equation of a cascaded lattice Boltzmann method (CLBM) for one conservation law - the advection-diffusion equation. To inspect the behavior of the error terms we derived an equivalent finite difference equation (EFDE), this approach is different from other techniques like the Chapman-Engskog expansion, equivalent partial differential equations or the Maxwell iteration used in the literature. The resulting EFDE is obtained from the recurrence formulas of the lattice Boltzmann equations for the CLBM and is subsequently analyzed by standard analytical techniques. We have found relations of the LBM parameters which could cancel some of the higher order terms, making the method more accurate. The detailed derivation of the EFDE and higher order terms' pre-factors is the main result of this paper. The resulting explicit form of the error terms are derived and presented.
