Abstract
Techniques for simulating fluid flow using a lattice Boltzmann (LB) approach for solving scalar transport equations and solving for total energy are described. In addition to the lattice Boltzmann functions for fluid flow the techniques include modifying a set of state vectors of the particles by adding specific total energy to states of particles that will be advected and subtracting the specific total energy from states of particles that will not be advected over a time interval and performing advection of the particles according to the modified set of states.
