This repository contains a Python implementation of modelling real-time fluid dynamics based on the following paper.
To install, press the green "Code" button, download, and extract the zip. Then, navigate to the "dist" folder and run the main.exe file.
The pre-compiled main.exe file will not work for these systems. If python is installed on the system with a run-time environment, navigate to the "src" folder and run the main.py file.
The simulation accurately predicts real world phenomena such as the Kármán vortex street,

and the transition from laminar to turbulent one might find from burning incense (actually the motivation for this project).

I would like to port this code to C++ using OpenGL or SFML to get higher performance, explore different CFD schemes (LBM, DNS, and RANS), and add more user customization (colors, solution stepping, drawing boundaries, density sources).
