The numerical prediction of pressure drop within wall-bounded flow domains at high Reynolds numbers (Re) using a large-eddy simulation (LES) approach is a challenging task for industrial applications because the fluid domain is usually underresolved. A lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) with Bhatnagar, Gross and Krook (BGK) collision operator coupled with the Smagorinsky–Lilly turbulence model is used to model these wall-bounded turbulent flows. The near wall region is modelled using wall functions to decrease the required mesh resolution for high Re. The influence of different velocity boundary approaches and wall functions is investigated for the benchmark bi-periodic fully developed turbulent channel flow for friction Reynolds numbers (Reτ) of 1000, 2000 and 5200. This benchmark case is validated against direct numerical simulation (DNS) results for turbulent statistics of 1st and 2nd order. Based on this validation, the pressure drop of an industrial Coriolis mass flowmeter is compared to experimental data for Re up to 127 800. The error of the pressure drop calculation in underresolved grids is reduced by two orders of magnitude in comparison to a no-slip approach for curved boundaries.
