Lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) is one of the popular methods for performing computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations, which surpasses the traditional techniques (like finite volume and finite element methods) in specific applications such as multiphase flow and phase separation simulations. OpenLB is an advanced yet very easy-to-use lattice Boltzmann simulation code, using which you can start to explore the world of LBM simulations easily. Since it has been requested by a couple of viewers/subscribers, we go a little bit into the details of OpenLB simulations to see how they are structured and how a simulation can be conducted.
