Popis
Shrnutí:This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of the performance of Fortran, C, Python, and Julia based GPU accelerated meshfree solvers for compressible flows. The programming model CUDA is used to develop the GPU codes. The meshfree solver is based on the least squares kinetic upwind method with entropy variables (q-LSKUM). To measure the performance of baseline codes, benchmark calculations are performed. The codes are then profiled to investigate the differences in their performance. Analysing various performance metrics for the computationally expensive flux residual kernel helped identify various bottlenecks in the codes. To resolve the bottlenecks, several optimisation techniques are employed. Post optimisation, the performance metrics have improved significantly, with the C GPU code exhibiting the best performance.
