Abstract

In the paper we present lattice gas automata program for simulation of fluid flows. The parallel algorithm was elaborated using mainly domain decomposition and was implemented on clusters of workstations under PVM. Dynamic load balancing was applied in order to efficiently exploit computer power during normal load.
