Dear Nimmi,

I’m not too familiar with the simulation of thin fluid layers, but it probably depends on the case you are trying to simulate. In this paper (10.1016/j.camwa.2007.08.013) the flow over a curved surface in lubrication is investigated with basic LBM regarding the velocity profile.
If you are asking whether it is feasible to resolve a thin fluid layer it depends on the size of your domain and your computational power at hand.

Best regards
Robin
