Simulation of high-power microwave source devices generally uses parallel algorithms to speed up the operation. In recent years, with the upgrade of parallel technology, the parallel efficiency of the particle simulation software has been further improved. Existing MPI-2 parallel technology of particle simulation software CHIPIC realizes the access to the local memory space of other processes through message passing. The new version of the MPI-3 standard provides the shared memory feature, which allows the data to be directly called by each process in the shared memory window, which reduces the information transmission. In this paper, based on the shared memory feature of MPI-3, the electromagnetic particle simulation parallel algorithm and dynamic load balancing algorithm are designed in the particle simulation software. The implementation of the two algorithms can improve the parallel efficiency from different aspects. The RKA and magnetic isolation oscillator high-power microwave devices are used as the test models. The test results show that the electromagnetic particle simulation parallel algorithm based on the shared memory feature of MPI-3 can improve the efficiency of the software by up to 44%. The efficiency of the dynamic load balancing algorithm based on MPI-3 can also be improved by up to 38%.
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.
