HiFiLES

Special Purpose CFD | LES-DES | FVM

HiFiLES (High Fidelity Large Eddy Simulation) is a high-order LES solver developed in the Aerospace Computing Laboratory (ACL) at Stanford University. It is written in C++. The code uses the MPI protocol to run on multiple processors and CUDA to harness GPU performance.

High-order numerical schemes have the potential to advance CFD beyond the current plateau of second-order methods and RANS turbulence modeling, ushering in new levels of accuracy and computational efficiency in turbulent flow simulations.

High-order numerical methods for flow simulations capture complex phenomena like vortices and separation regions using fewer degrees of freedom than their low-order counterparts.

HiFiLES is a compressible flow solver for unstructured grids built from the ground up to take full advantage of parallel computing architectures, specially for Graphical Processing Unit (GPU) architectures.
