Abstract: The lattice Bhatnagar-Gross-Krook (LBGK) model D3Q7 for reaction-diffusion equations is presented in this paper. By using this model, we simulate the three-dimensional Turing pattern and spiral waves in a chlorite-iodidemalonic acid (CIMA) system.

Key words: reaction-diffusion equation, Turing pattern, lattice Boltzmann method
