This team project focused on simulating jet mixing in the supersonic flow with shock. One important finding was that remote visualization provided possibilities for remote, very large data management, limiting the unpleasant (and unavoidable) remote-rendering delay effect.
Resources Used by the Team
• OpenFOAM Solver (sonicFoam)
• web interface provided by CILEA
Significant Challenges
• the web interface provided by CILEA was pretty convenient to run the jobs, although some extra efforts were required to download the final results.
Major Benefits
• Transferring large amount of data, providing a noticeable advantage when using the “rsync” utility, due to direct access.
• alternative means of accessing remote data offered by CILEA allowed maximum benefit from the relevant HPC facilities where the remote visualization system is sitting on top of a 512 GB RAM node plus videoimage compression tools.
Main Conclusions and Recommendations
• Because the initial test program runs were not completed during this round of the experiment, both the end-user and the resource provider indicated they would like to participate in the second round of the experiment.
• Due to unexpected numerical problems and the time spent investigating these problems the simulations were not completed beyond the step where the test case was created on the end-user desktop.
