Parallel Dynamic Grid Refinement for Industrial Applications

چکیده
This paper covers a description of the algorithms and data-structures used in the parallel DLR TAU-Code Adaptation tool. Attention is given to the basic algorithms of the parallel anisotropic refinement and de-refinement, as well as the data-structures for distributed grids and grid hierarchy. The parallelization issues for distributed data are discussed along with the dynamic repartitioning and the load-balancing algorithm. To demonstrate the dynamic character of the TAU-Code adaptation, we choose a simulation for a complex aircraft configuration and perform a parallel CFD calculation using varying numbers of CPUs. The obtained results show good parallel scalability with respect to memory and CPU-time consumption.

متن کاملA novel dynamic load balancing scheme for parallel systems
Adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) is a type of multiscale algorithm that achieves high resolution in localized regions of dynamic, multidimensional numerical simulations. One of the key issues related to AMR is dynamic load balancing (DLB), which allows large-scale adaptive applications to run efficiently on parallel systems. In this paper, we present an efficient DLB scheme for structured AMR (SA...

The use of photovoltaic (PV) cells in domestic and industrial applications has grown rapidly through the recent years. Constructing PV plants is a very smart measure to produce free electricity in large scales, especially in the countries with higher solar irradiation potential. On the other hand, compressed air energy storage (CAES) has already been proposed to be employed for energy storage a...
