Abstract

A new general approach for numerically computing flow fields on parallel computing environments is presented, discussed and analysed. The hierarchy presented here is based on a parallel split of operators. A portion of the theory is presented together with its application to two‐ and three‐dimensional flows. This strategy is applied to a two‐dimensional problem for which a specific parallel split, called a parabolized split, is given. The parallel algorithm that results from this split is analysed, leading to reasonably good parallel efficiency, which is close to 50%. Actual experiments lead to similar conclusions. This parallel strategy can also be used together with other parallel computing algorithms, such as domain decomposition, to give an optimal‐type parallel algorithm for the Navier–Stokes equations.
