Abstract

The parallelization of a multigrid solver for the quasi-3D and 3D RANS equations was implemented on a distributed shared memory parallel-architectured computer by the insertion of compiler directives. Tests performed by varying the number of blocks are presented in terms of speed-up and percentage of achieved parallelism. Typical time-consuming industrial applications which can benefit of this approach are discussed.
