Sunwell Technologies Inc. 主要生产和销售冰浆(Deepchill™),它是在诸如货车之类的地方冷藏食物及其他物品的一种环保方式。他们委托位于达特茅斯(麻省大学达特茅斯校区)的马萨诸塞大学计算多相流动小组为 Sunwell 进行的这项实验研究提供仿真支持。
Deepchill 是一种热电池,它采用流动的冰浆使货车中持续产生冰霜。优化浆料的流动和定位对于以均匀的方式持续产生冰霜来说很重要。由于这些冷藏系统可能相当大,那么在现实的系统上进行所有实验研究会十分困难,而且消耗成本和时间。
模拟冰浆的非等温流动使 Sunwell 及大学团队可以研究具体设计标准,包括特定结构域的平均温度和最大温度。该仿真已在麻省大学达特茅斯校区的科学计算工作组 HPC 集群上进行,该集群包含 72 个节点,每个节点各有两个英特尔至强(四核)处理器。
