Intel® Xeon® Processor E5 Speeds CeRTuS Project Computation: Study
University turbomachinery research center cuts 260 days from calculation time for complex aeronautical simulations with Intel® Xeon® processors.
The University of Florence’s Turbomachinery and Energy Systems Research Center (CeRTuS) conducts research into energy conversion, identifying and developing techniques and equipment that can help reduce power consumption. Its focus covers a wide range of disciplines including thermodynamics, physics, mathematical mechanics and fluid dynamics, while taking into account thermal, chemical, plant and economic considerations. The center has developed a computer code, known as TRAF*, to carry out advanced analysis and research into thermodynamics for the turbomachinery industry. To deliver the best results, such a complex and demanding application needs a high-performance platform to support it, so CeRTuS implemented a code parallelization project on the latest-generation Intel® Xeon® processor E5 family. As a result, it can now complete computations that used to take 265 days in just five.
