Abstract

During the past fifteen years Lattice Boltzmann method has attracted much attention in the area of CFD, whereas it has also been recognized that it is both computationally demanding and memory intensive. In this paper we give a brief introduction to the equations for LBM and the basic features, describe the programming model in multicore computing environment, and outline the parallelization strategies. Moreover, we explore corresponding implementation on multicore platform. In order to demonstrate the efficiency, several benchmark steady fluid flow experiments have been performed. The results show that our approach achieves good performance.
