A Multiblock Solution Process For The Navier-Stokes Equations On A Network Of Transputers

Two-dimensional aerofoil computations are very conveniently handled using a multiblock domain decomposition approach. One such code uses a cell-centred scheme based on the Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes equations employing the finite volume scheme due to Jameson et a/1. The multiblock nature of the aerofoil code makes it amenable to geometric parallelism and the general purpose FORTRAN harness described by Mushtaq et a/2 provides an ideal environment for the implementation of a parallel code on a network of transputers.
