Abstract

In this context, a small scale cluster system for computational fluid dynamics (CFD) platform OpenFOAM is constructed, then a turbulent combustion case is simulated on the small scale cluster system. After the simulation is done, we can draw a conclusion with data that the effect of three-dimensional flow field is achieved. At last, the performance of the cluster system and parallel efficiency are tested and analyzed.
