Scalability studies on a cc-NUMA computer architecture for large automotive simulations

摘要

The maturity of the Computational Fuid Dynamics methods and the increasing computational power of today's computers have allowed the automotive industry to incorporate the CFD technology in several stages of the design process. As the application of the CFD technology is moving from the component level analysis to the system level, the complexity and the size of the models increase continuously. Successful simulation requires synergy between CAD, grid generation, and solvers.
