This article provides a concise survey of the lattice Boltzmann equation: its mathematical theory and its capabilities for applications in computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The lattice Boltzmann method stems from the Boltzmann equation, and thus differentiates from any conventional method for CFD based on direct discretizations of the Navier–Stokes equations. The lattice Boltzmann method is formulated for near incompressible flows. We will show some examples to demonstrate the state of the art and capabilities of the lattice Boltzmann method. The examples include direct numerical simulations of decaying homogeneous turbulence, large eddy simulations of flows past a sphere, suspensions in fluid, a droplet moving on a surface, and multi-component flows through porous media. The chapter is concluded with an outlook of future work. Keywords: Lattice Boltzmann equation; incompressible flows; DNS; LES; Suspensions in fluid; multi-component flows; complex flows through porous media
