AB - <p style="text-align: justify;">In this paper, we simulate the pressure driven fluid flow at the pore scale
level through 2-D porous media, which is composed of different curved channels via
the lattice Boltzmann method. With this direct simulation, the relation between the tortuosity
and the permeability is examined. The numerical results are in good agreement
with the existing theory.</p>
