High Performance Computing Cluster (HPC) for AIT, DTU

The Danish Technical University (DTU) wants to purchase a fast, high capacity, high performance computing cluster for wind energy, mechanical structure optimization and general research purposes, with an emphasis on Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) models. The Danish wind energy research environment is internationally recognized as being in the forefront of wind energy technology, and The Technical University of Denmark (DTU) has provided a major part of the wind energy research in Denmark. A large part of the research is centered around computer models, from advanced structural modeling, aeroelastic and dynamic stability, aerodynamics, incompressible finite volume based computational fluid dynamics models, wind resources and mesoscale meteorological models. The typical workload on the computer is a blend of large parametric studies of relative short single processor runs, parallel runs utilizing a limited number of CPU's with high memory requirement, and massive parallel runs with balanced memory requirements. A range of software is in use, ranging from locally developed applications to standard scientific software from other research institutes and commercial vendors.
