The paper reports the extension of a Lattice Boltzmann model for the nonlinear viscous shallow water equations (NSW) and its application to the simulation of internal flood water dynamics. The solver is accelerated with the help of NVIDIAs CUDA framework to access the computational power of graphics processing units (GPGPUs). The model is validated with typical tank sloshing and cross flooding scenarios and the results are compared to analytical solutions and the results of a state-of-the-art shallow water solver on the basis of Glimm’s method.

This work compares three forcing schemes for a recently introduced cascaded lattice Boltzmann shallow water model: a basic scheme, a second-order scheme, and a centred scheme. Although the force is applied in the streaming step of the lattice Boltzmann model, the acceleration is also considered in the transformation to central moments. The model performance is tested for one and two dimensional benchmarks.
