Flow force and torque on submerged bodies in lattice-Boltzmann via   momentum exchange
  We present a new derivation of the momentum exchange method to compute the flow force and torque on a submerged body in lattice Boltzmann methods. Our derivation does not depend on a particular implementation of the boundary conditions at the body surface and relies on general principles. We recover some well known expressions, in some cases with slight corrections, to treat the cases of static and moving bodies. We also present some numerical tests that support the correctness of the formulas derived.
