Review text

The development and applications of a parallel, time-dependent incompressible Navier-Stokes flow solver and a parallel multigrid elliptic kernel are described. The flow solver is based on a second-order projection method applied to a staggered finite-difference grid. The multigrid algorithms implemented in the parallel elliptic kernel, which is needed by the flow solver, are V-cycle and full V-cycle schemes. A grid-partition strategy is used in the parallel implementations of both the flow solver and the multigrid elliptic kernel on all fine and coarse grids. Numerical experiments and parallel performance tests show that the parallel solver package is numerically stable, physically robust, and computationally efficient.
