Parallel computation of 3-D small-scale turbulence via additive turbulent decomposition

Conference ·
OSTI ID:228186
Implementation and parallelization of additive turbulent decomposition is described for the small-scale incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in 3-D generalized coordinates applied to the problem of turbulent jet flow. It is shown that the method is capable of producing high-resolution local results, and that it exhibits a high degree of parallelizability. Results are presented for both distributed- and shared-memory architectures, and speedups are essentially linear with number of processors in both cases.
