Application of the parallel INMOST platform to subsurface flow and transport modelling

Abstract

INMOST (Integrated Numerical Modelling and Objectoriented Supercomputing Technologies) is a tool for supercomputer simulations characterized by a maximum generality of supported computational meshes, distributed data structure flexibility and costeffectiveness, as well as crossplatform portability. INMOST is a software platform for developing parallel numerical models on general meshes. User guides, online documentation, and the open-source code of the library is available at http://www.inmost.org. To demonstrate the power and efficiency of the specified technology the solutions of subsurface flow and transport problems was considered. The efficiency of the parallel solution of the multiphase flow model was shown for up to several thousands of cores. Real-life examples of advective-diffusive-dispersive transport with sorption and decay modeling as well as a reactive transport problem were also considered.
