This paper introduces the notion of lattice gas as a new medium to perform fluid dynamics simulations. After giving the definition of lattice gases, the results of statistical analyses of their macroscopic behaviour are reviewed. It is shown that Navier-Stokes equations can be simulated. Some information is given concerning the algorithms and their possible adaptation to parallel hardware, including cellular automata. Finally the construction of a specialized machine for lattice gas simulations will be presented.
