- TELLURIDE - LANL Fluid Dynamics group (T-3)
- 3-D high-resolution tool for simulating casting processes
- incompressible free-surface flow during mold filling
- heat transfer-driven convective flow during solidification
- interface physics (surface tension, phase change)
- complex geometries
- unstructured-mesh, finite-volume approach
- Fortran 90
- emphasis on portability
- parallel execution via explicit message passing
- robust and efficient linear solvers needed for heat conduction and
pressure solves
- first cut was to use JTPACK77
- gradually migrated to Fortran 90
