In this paper introduce a finite difference lattice Boltzmann model capable to describe the hydrodynamics and the phase separation of a two‐dimensional liquid‐vapor system. A numerical scheme involving flux limiter techniques is proposed to minimize spurious numerical effects. We report some simulation results of the spinodal decomposition process and we find evidence of two different growth regimes depending on the system viscosity.
