چکیده
This paper presents our work on simulation of large-scale reservoir models on IBM Blue Gene/Q and studying the scalability of our parallel reservoir simulators. An in-house black oil simulator has been implemented. It uses MPI for communication and is capable of simulating reservoir models with hundreds of millions of grid cells. Benchmarks show that our parallel simulator are thousands of times faster than sequential simulators that designed for workstations and personal computers, and the simulator has excellent scalability.

Towards Extreme-Scale Simulations for Low Mach Fluids with Second-Generation Trilinos
Trilinos is an object-oriented software framework for the solution of large-scale, complex multi-physics engineering and scientific problems. While Trilinos was originally designed for scalable solutions of large problems, the fidelity needed by many simulations is significantly greater than what one could have envisioned two decades ago. When problem sizes exceed a billion elements even scalab...
متن کاملOpenAtom: Scalable Ab-Initio Molecular Dynamics with Diverse Capabilities
The complex interplay of tightly coupled, but disparate, computation and communication operations poses several challenges for simulating atomic scale dynamics on multi-petaflops architectures. OpenAtom addresses these challenges by exploiting overdecomposition and asynchrony in Charm++, and scales to thousands of cores for realistic scientific systems with only a few hundred atoms. At the same...

متن کاملLoad Balancing using Hilbert Space-filling Curves for Parallel Reservoir Simulations
New reservoir simulators designed for parallel computers enable us to overcome performance limitations of personal computers and to simulate large-scale reservoir models. With development of parallel reservoir simulators, more complex physics and detailed models can be studied. The key to design efficient parallel reservoir simulators is not to improve the performance of individual CPUs drastic...
