Abstract: A new flow solver scalable on multiple Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) for direct numerical simulation of wall-bounded incompressible flow is presented. This solver utilizes a previously reported work [4] which proposes a semi-implicit fractional-step method on a single GPU. Extension of this work to accommodate multiple GPUs becomes inefficient when global transpose is used in the Alternating Direction Implicit (ADI) and Fourier-transformbased direct methods. A new strategy for designing an efficient multi-G… Show more

“…Not surprisingly, numerous recent studies have been devoted towards porting finite-difference DNS codes for incompressible flows in GPU-based architectures. Some examples are the AFiD code for wall-bounded turbulent flows with thermal convection [6]; the boundary layer code in [7,8]; and the spectral/finitedifference channel flow code in [9]; see also the review of CFD calculations on GPUs in [10]. A common outcome in all these studies is the achievement of remarkable computational performance of the GPU implementations, compared to the many-CPU codes used as starting point.…”
