The lattice Boltzmann equations (LBE) method (LBM) is applicable for simulating the multiphysics problems of fluid flows with free boundaries, taking into account the viscosity, surface tension, evaporation and wetting degree of a solid surface. Modeling of the nonstationary motion of a drop of liquid along a solid surface with a variable level of wettability is carried out. For the computer simulation of such a problem, the three-dimensional lattice Boltzmann equations method D3Q19 is used. The LBE method allows us to parallelize the calculations on multiprocessor graphics accelerators using the CUDA programming technology.
