In this paper, we present parallel simulations of three-dimensional complex flows obtained on an ORIGIN 3800 computer and on homogeneous and heterogeneous (processors of different speeds and RAM) computational grids. The solver under consideration, which is representative of modern numerics used in industrial computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software, is based on a mixed element-volume method on unstructured tedrahedrisations. The parallelisation strategy combines mesh partitioning techniques, a message-passing programming model and an additive Schwarz algorithm. The parallelisation performances are analysed on a two-phase compressible flow and a turbulent flow past a square cylinder.

Abstract
In this paper, we present parallel simulations of three-dimensional complex flows obtained on an ORIGIN 3800 computer and on homogeneous and heterogeneous (processors of different speeds and RAM) computational grids. The solver under consideration, which is representative of modern numerics used in industrial computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software, is based on a mixed element-volume method on unstructured tedrahedrisations. The parallelisation strategy combines mesh partitioning techniques, a message-passing programming model and an additive Schwarz algorithm. The parallelisation performances are analysed on a two-phase compressible flow and a turbulent flow past a square cylinder.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
