Hi everyone,
Has anybody tried CUDA with OpenFOAM? I have heard that computations times are highly reduced. I guess that the important part of this is the solution of the big linear systems produced by numerical discretization... What are the implications of using CUDA? Are all the solvers and BCs available using this methodolgy? What does the user have to do to use it? Oriented GPU programming is needed? If anybody could give me a starting point for starting to learn about this it would be great! I have just heard things but I have no idea about this new technology... I apologise if this is not the right place to ask about this. Best, TENSIAN |

You can use CUDA linear solvers in FOAM-Extend and find out.
