Mixing of particles by chaotic flow fields was simulated on the Connection Machine. We assigned each cell to the processor and kept the coordinates of particles residing on the cell in the local memory of the processor. This approach implies the exchange between the local memories, when a particle moves from one cell to another.
Approximately 1 d particles were injected into atime-dependent flow f e l d obtained by solving the nonlinear system of PDEs, describing turbulent thermal convection. The flow field was calculated on CRAY and data were transferred to CM-200 through high-speed HlPPI channel.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
