Introduction ============ Bluebottle is the many-GPU extension of Bluebottle, a GPU-centric finite- difference imcompressible Navier-Stokes flow solver coupled with the Physalis method for fully resolving spherical particles dispersed throughout the flow. It is a research code developed by Daniel Willen ([email protected]) under the supervision of Dr. Adam Sierakowski ([email protected]) and Prof. Andrea Prosperetti at the Johns Hopkins University. The capability of solving temperature field using many-GPU is added in a recent extension to Bluebottle-3.0 by Yuhang Zhang ([email protected]) based on Yayun Wang's work which runs in single-GPU. The code is able to run Rayleigh Benard convection simulation with several thousand resolved particles. The original single-GPU code was developed by Adam Sierakowski under the supervision of Prof. Prosperetti and can be found at: https://github.com/groundcherry/bluebottle More information and documentation is available at: physalisCFD.org Branches ======== There are several branches in this repository: - master -- Contains release versions of Bluebottle. - devel -- Contains stable development versions that are not ready for master release. Obtaining Bluebottle ================== Bluebottle has been released under the Apache License, Version 2.0 and is available at: https://github.com/groundcherry/bluebottle-3.0 Installing Bluebottle =================== For installation instructions, see the accompanying INSTALL document. Running Bluebottle ================ For run instructions, see the accompanying RUN document. Bluebottle Documentation ====================== The most recent documentation can be found on the Bluebottle Wiki at http://lucan.me.jhu.edu or physaliscfd.org. Most of the documentation for the single-GPU version applies to the many-GPU version as well. Questions and Bug Reports ========================= Bluebottle is an academic research code being actively developed. Should you have any questions about the code, please submit an issue using the Bluebottle Issue tracker at https://github.com/groundcherry/bluebottle-3.0/issues.
According to [1,2], HDF5 1.10 was a major update to the HDF5 library. Although Bluebottle itself doesn't care about the underlying changes, the ability to visualize and analyze the output files are impacted. Notably, anaconda-python and paraview have raised errors when trying to deal with the different HDF5 versions.
Potential Solutions:
Note that these solutions aren't guaranteed fixes and should be elaborated on.

Hi!
I found that if the grid size in the domain is decreasing (assuming that only 1 GPU is used), the speed-up of the calculation will not increase significantly (if the grid size is too small). For example, the time spent in simulations with global grid size 160160160 is less than twice of that with global grid size 16016080. But in normal CPU CFD codes, the speed-ups will be more than twice if the global grid size is half. I'm not sure why this is the case. Is it the nature of GPU calculation?
Thanks,
Tom
Hi!
Right now I put fixed particles in the domain and let the flow develop, by making sure that the gaps between them are larger than 70% of the radius. I use 10 grids across the radius and 1.15a for integration radius. l=3 is used for Lamb coefficients. I don't know what makes it hard to converge, since the code diverges 50 steps after the initial quiescent flow condition so the flow has not fully developed yet and the velocity shouldn't be too large to have a big particle Reynolds number. Do you have any suggestions how to stabilize the code better?
