A Parallel Solver for the Time-Periodic Navier–Stokes Equations

We investigate parallel algorithms for the solution of the Navier–Stokes equations in space-time. For periodic solutions, the discretized problem can be written as a large non-linear system of equations. This system of equations is solved by a Newton iteration. The Newton correction is computed using a preconditioned GMRES solver. The parallel performance of the algorithm is illustrated.
