How can I use Foam-Extend Cuda Solvers?

phandy · May 22, 2015, 15:22

I just followed this document, which entails details the installation of openfoam-extend with cuda solvers. However, with all my searching, I haven't found anything that shows how to use the newly available gpu acceleration.

On cpu, I previously used `mpirun` to parallelize my cases. What should I use to push simulations to my GPU?

Alternatively, am I using the wrong tool for my goal? I've noticed that "RapidCFD" is another CUDA implementation of openfoam, but I don't know how to use GPU with it either.

I think that the answer is here: http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/ope...end-3-0-a.html

Did you have a problems with compilation of cudaSolvers ? I had a problems with cusp... So I can't test the solvers...

You can search it online in google search, if still you need help.
