This paper presents the 2D simulation of modified microfluidic T-shape micromixer with the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) using the palabos library for simulation, that runs on multi-core CPUs and GPUs. T-micromixer is modified with obstacles in the form of circles. The walls of micromixer are modified to triangular shape. This modifications allows to achieve better mixing of fluids in microchannels. The modeling was performed by using the palabos library for D2Q9 LBM lattice.
