Wetting is an important phenomenon in many engineering applications. In this study, a new algorithm is presented to simulate 2D dynamic wetting phenomena using the single phase lattice Boltzmann method (LBM). Basis of our method is an additional force at triple points where fluid, gas and wall intersect.
