Parallel Eigensolvers for a Discretized Radiative Transfer Problem
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this work we consider the numerical computation of eigenpairs of a matrix derived from integral operators. The matrix is associated to a radiative transfer problem in stellar atmospheres that is formulated by means of a weakly singular Fredholm integral equation defined on a Banach space. We examine direct and iterative parallel strategies for the eigensolution phase, using state-of-the-art numerical methods implemented in publicly available software packages.

In this study, three-dimensional simulations are presented for laminar forced convection flow of a radiating gas over a backward-facing step in rectangular duct. The fluid is treated as a gray, absorbing, emitting and scattering medium. The three-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system is used to solve the governing equations which are conservations of mass, momentum and energy. These equations...

A double-GPU code is developed to accelerate WENO schemes. The test problem is a compressible viscous flow. The convective terms are discretized using third- to ninth-order WENO schemes and the viscous terms are discretized by the standard fourth-order central scheme. The code written in CUDA programming language is developed by modifying a single-GPU code. The OpenMP library is used for parall...
