Abstract: Lattice Boltzmann simulations of three-dimensional drops spreading on a uniform solid surface will be discussed. It will be shown that, if the liquid–liquid interface is sufficiently thick, the contact line velocities obtained from the simulations agree well with theoretical predictions based on a solution of the Stokes equation.
