Parallel computation of rising bubbles using the lattice Boltzmann method on workstation cluster

The three-dimensional two-phase flow simulation code based on the two-component two-phase lattice Boltzmann method, in which two distribution functions are used to represent two phases, is developed and parallelized using the MPI library. Efficient parallel computations are performed on a workstation cluster composed of different types of workstations. Rising bubbles and their coalescence in a static fluid are simulated as one of the fundamental two-phase flow phenomena.
