We demonstrate that the requirement of galilean invariance determines the choice of H function for a wide class of entropic lattice Boltzmann models for the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. The required H function has the form of the Burg entropy for D=2, and of a Tsallis entropy with q=1-2/D for D>2, where D is the number of spatial dimensions. We use this observation to construct a fully explicit, unconditionally stable, galilean invariant, lattice-Boltzmann model for the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations, for which attainable Reynolds number is limited only by grid resolution.
