Abstract
Parallelizing TfC, a state-of-the-art industrial 3d CFD code for execution on both networks of workstations (NOWs) and massively parallel processors (MPPs) is one of the main objectives in the interdisciplinary research project SEMPA. In this paper, the concept for parallelizing TfC is presented as well as results obtained with a first prototype.
The work presented here is being funded by the German Federal Department of Education, Science, Research and Technology, BMBF (Bundesministerium für B ildung, Wissenschaft, F orschung und Technologie) within the project SEMPA.
