    The lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) is an important numerical algorithm for computational fluid dynamics. This study designs a two-layer parallel model for the Sunway TaihuLight supercomputer SW26010 many-core processor, which implements LBM algorithms and performs optimization. Numerical experiments with different problem sizes proved that the proposed model has better parallel performance and scalability than before. In this study, we performed numerical simulations of the flows around the two-dimensional (2D) NACA0012 airfoil, and the results of a series of flows around the different angles of attack were obtained. The results of the pressure coefficient and lift coefficient were in good agreement with those in the literature.
