The LHC BRAN lu­mi­nos­i­ty de­tec­tor mon­i­tors the high lu­mi­nos­i­ty in­ter­ac­tion re­gions (Atlas and CMS). This cham­ber, which is an Argon gas ion­iza­tion de­tec­tor mea­sures the for­ward neu­tral par­ti­cles from col­li­sions the in­ter­ac­tion re­gion. To pre­dict and im­prove the un­der­stand­ing of the de­tec­tor's per­for­mance, we pro­duced a de­tailed model of the de­tec­tor and its sur­round­ings in FLUKA. In this paper, we pre­sent the model and re­sults of our sim­u­la­tions in­clud­ing the de­tec­tor's es­ti­mat­ed re­sponse to in­ter­ac­tions for beam en­er­gies of 3.5, 5.0, and 7.0 TeV.
