title = "GPU-accelerated software library for unsteady flamelet modeling of turbulent combustion with complex chemical kinetics",
abstract = "Modeling and simulation of turbulent combustion are computationally demanding and challenging problems due to the complexity of turbulent flows and the complex chemical reaction kinetics. Recent advances in high performance computing (HPC) has allowed simulations to utilize increasing computer power to obtain newer insights that were not feasible before. The arrival of GPUs and many-core processors is set to revolutionize the HPC landscape. This paper presents an unsteady flamelet software library developed for utilizing GPUs as an onboard accelerator while the flow solver continues to run on conventional host processors using legacy software. The software was architected to expose multiple levels of parallelism and concurrency available in the unsteady flamelet model which is also necessary to realize the full potential of these accelerators. While the model and its coupling with the flow solver have been known for some time, the potential to target these models and libraries for newer HPC architectures provides a greater incentive for pursuing combustion model development.",
