This paper presents an efficient algorithm for simulation and rendering of fluid flow on graphics hardware. The algorithm takes advantage of explicit early-z culling to reduce the amount of computation during both the simulation and rendering steps. The approach is straightforward to implement and speeds up the simulations in some cases by a factor of three.
