Turbulence Modeling vs Lattice Boltzmann Method

Developers should learn turbulence modeling when working on simulations involving fluid dynamics, such as in aerospace, automotive, or environmental engineering, where accurate prediction of turbulent flows is critical for design and analysis meets developers should learn lbm when working on simulations involving fluid dynamics, such as in aerospace, automotive, or biomedical engineering, where traditional navier-stokes solvers struggle with complex boundaries or multiphysics. Here's our take.
