However, there are two main shortages of DSMC method: one is complex gridding processing and the other is its large time consumption. The dynamic collision grid DSMC method generates collision grids adaptively according to the flowfield, which overcomes the first shortage. For the other shortage, we port the dynamic collision grid DSMC method to GPU using CUDA. During our parallel implement, the main computation is performed on GPU while CPU only deals with the processes of initialization and output. A two-dimensional benchmark problem in different sizes is used to demonstrate the correctness of the parallelization. The results show that 10+X speedup is achieved based on NVIDIA Fermi C2050. For a same case, the performance on NVIDIA’s newly released Kepler K20 is 1.3-1.6x higher than that on Fermi C2050.
