Hi Julius,

in LBM, desity is like pressure. If you fix it on both side and fix the velocity on one side, the simulation the be unstable.

I would do it (I have done it that way actually) in the following way: Fix the desity at all inlets and set a pressure condition at the outlet OR fix velociyt + desity (by iniEquilibrium) at one side and use a convection BC at the other side.
