Performance Metrics of a Parallel Three Dimensional Two-Phase DSMC Method for Particle-Laden Flows

نویسنده

چکیده

Parallelization aspects of a two-phase three dimensional Direct Simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) method for modeling particle-laden gaseous flow in the vicinity of the Head-Disk Interface (HDI) gap in a modern Hard Disk Drive (HDD) enclosure are discussed in this work. Parallel performance metrics have been extracted and compared by executing this method on supercomputing platforms and various multicore computing systems to illustrate the portability and scalability of the method. Super-linear speedup is obtained for the parallel case on all the computing platforms considered, implying a drastic reduction in the computational time.

Towards Development of a Hybrid DSMC-CFD Method for Simulating Hypersonic Interacting Flows

A preliminary hybrid particle-continuum computational framework for simulating hypersonic interacting flows is proposed. The framework consists of the direct simulation Monte Carlo-Information Preservation (DSMC-IP) method coupled with a NavierStokes solver. Since the DSMC-IP method provides the macroscopic information in each time step, determination of the continuum fluxes across the interfac...
