Abstract

Abstract Development and application of the open-source GPU-based fluid-thermal simulation code, NekRS, are described. Time advancement is based on an efficient kth-order accurate timesplit formulation coupled with scalable iterative solvers. Spatial discretization is based on the high-order spectral element method (SEM), which affords the use of fast, low-memory, matrix-free operator evaluation. Recent developments include support for nonconforming meshes using overset grids and for GPU-based Lagrangian particle tracking. Results of large-eddy simulations of atmospheric boundary layers for wind-energy applications as well as extensive nuclear energy applications are presented.
