In this paper we describe an implementation of the Lattice Boltzmann Equation method for fluid-dynamics simulations on the APE100 parallel computer. We have performed a simulation of a two-dimensional Rayleigh-Bénard convection cell. We have tested the theory proposed by Shraiman and Siggia for the scaling of the Nusselt number vs. Rayleigh number.
