Benchmark tests of the efficient electrostatic particle-in-cell simulation code on various high-performance computing systems

Abstract

ORCID 0000-0001-7641-6908The “up3bd” code, which is an efficient three-dimensional (3D) electrostatic particle-in-cell (PIC) simulation code for study of transport dynamics in fusion boundary layer plasmas or other plasmas in nature, has been tested on various high-performance computing (HPC) systems which consist of different types of processor. The results of benchmark tests indicate that the up3bd code works faster on processors in which cache memory is larger or memory bandwidth is broader. Also, the types of computations that each architecture excels at and struggles with has been revealed.journal articl
