Abstract
In the paper, an efficient computational strategy for ultra large scale finite element fluid analysis on PC clusters was shown. The authors have developed the incompressible viscous fluid analysis system, which is suitable for Massively Parallel Processors and apply it to the PC cluster system. using the efficient parallel domain decomposition tool based on METIS and ParMETIS and the efficient parallel I/O method, high parallel performance was achieved on PC cluster environment. Some numerical examples were shown for estimating the parallel efficiency of the developed analysis system.
