[LCRC Accounts] Project Request: 3DDES
by accounts＠lcrc.anl.gov 28 Aug '17

Hello, A new project on the LCRC cluster has been requested. Please forward the information on to the LCRC Allocation sub-committee. Applicant's name: Ramesh Balakrishnan Applicant's institution: ANL Applicant's division: LCF Project Name: 3DDES Project title: Detached Eddy Simulation of Separated High Reynolds Number Flows Associated funding: ASCR Funding via ALCF Other Systems: Theta, Mira, Bebop Science: I am requesting 10M core hours, for the whole year, on Bebop, to develop detached eddy simulation models that can serve as a wall model for moderately separated flow in thick boundary layers. Examples of such flow are the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) over complex terrain, large eddy breakup devices (LEBU), and separated flow past airfoils at high angles of attack (i.e. greater than 10 degrees). Project description: Preliminary simulations of the ABL over Complex Terrain have been carried out on Bebop during the Early User Period, where the PI had an opportunity to run and test out modified version(s) of OpenFOAM, SU2, and FDL3DI on Bebop. The simulations were run on meshes ranging from 28M grid points to 140M grid points, and on a maximum of 4096 cores of Bebop. The codes make use of MPI and can optionally use OpenMP. In addition, one can vectorize the code for the KNL nodes (in which case OpenMP is not needed at all). During the early user period, the vectorization and OpenMP options were not tested out. The flat MPI codes do scale well on both the KNL and Broadwell nodes, although the time-to-solution is about five to six times slower on the KNL nodes (when compared to the Broadwell nodes). This is something that I plan to investigate in more detail as part of this allocation request. Industry partnership: None at this time. Project URL: Requested allocation: 10000000 Q1: 2500000 Q2: 2500000 Q3: 2500000 Q4: 2500000 Justification: modified OpenFOAM: 35,000 finite volumes per core (on smallest number of cores) ======================================= cores time/time_step 4096 (KNL) 27 seconds (64 cores/node x 64 nodes) 2048 (KNL) 43 seconds (64 cores/node x 32 nodes) 1024 (KNL) 75 seconds (64 cores/node x 16 nodes) 4096 (BDW) 2 seconds (32 cores/node x 128 nodes) 2048 (BDW) 5 seconds (32 cores/node x 64 nodes) Please note that the 10M core hours (for the whole year) is requested on Bebop. 1024 (BDW) 12 seconds (32 cores/node x 32 nodes) modified SU2: 12,000 finite volumes per core (on smallest # of cores) ================================= solver cores time/time_step FV 1024 (KNL) 11 seconds FE_DG (p4) 1024 (KNL) 16 seconds (same # finite volumes/core) FV 2048 (KNL) 8 seconds FE_DG (p4) 2048 (KNL) 11 seconds (same # finite volumes per core) Storage requirements: 5TB I will be generating quite a few time slices of the simulation.

[LCRC Accounts] Yearly Allocation Request for NuclearStructure
by accounts＠lcrc.anl.gov 24 Aug '17

24 Aug '17

Hello, A yearly allocation for the LCRC cluster has been requested with the following updated information: Submitter/PI: Richard Chasman Project Name: NuclearStructure Division: PHY Project title: Optimization of many-body wavefunctions Associated funding: DOE/Office of Nuclear Physics Other Systems: desktop Science: The purpose of this work is to obtain a good description of low-lying nuclear states, going beyond a mean-field description. It becomes necessary to go beyond the mean-field approximation when the nucleus of interest is transitional in some sense, e.g. transitional between a spherical shape and a deformed shape. The need to go beyond a mean-field description is particularly important for excited states. Project description: We are now studying the low lying states of nuclei in which T=0 and T=1 pairing play an important role in addition to the deformation driving multipole-multipole interactions. We have extended our code to look at the anomalously large M1 matrix elements in nuclei with roughly equal numbers of protons and neutrons. We would like to extend our approach to larger systems.This requires faster cpu's and alot more memory. Industry partnership: Project URL: Current FY Hours Used: undetermined amount New FY Requested allocation: 10000 Q1: 2500 Q2: 2500 Q3: 2500 Q4: 2500 Justification: Storage requirements: 1 TB Thank You, The LCRC Accounts System
