Hi developers,
I'm a beginner of SU2 and I want to run the testcases in parallel.
Since there are so many testcases (so many .cfg file), I don't clearly know which corresponding Python script I should choose to run the input files. I generally know the functions of each .py file, but given a .cfg file and a .su2 file, I still don't know exactly how to run them. Is there any clarification of the testcases and the .py solvers?
Is it right that the parallel run only need the .py file and does not need the SU2_CFD and other SU2_*** executables because the .py has organized these SU2_*** files?

Sincerely,
Emily

Please see the tutorials at:
http://adl-public.stanford.edu/docs/...%27s+Tutorials
for some examples. The second tutorial includes directions on running in parallel.

In short, the command to run in parallel is:
"parallel_computation.py -f inv_ONERAM6.cfg -p NP"
where NP is the number of processors to use.

Thank you!! But since there are some other Python scripts in Running SU2 http://adl-public.stanford.edu/docs/...ED/Running+SU2 such as mesh_adaptation.py and so on, when I should use the other Python scripts apart from parallel_computation.py?

There is information about that at the link you posted,
http://adl-public.stanford.edu/docs/...ED/Running+SU2

This page includes descriptions of the python scripts, what they are used for, and a brief description of the options. The shape optimization script is also included in the tutorials. If you are only running a flow solution, you do not need these scripts.
