Overview
code_saturne is the free, open-source multi-purpose software developed primarily by EDF for computational fluid dynamics (CFD) applications. It mainly solves the Navier-Stokes equations with scalar transport for 2D, 2D-axisymmetric, and 3D flows, whether steady or unsteady, laminar or turbulent, incompressible or weakly compressible, isothermal or not, using the Finite Volume Method (FVM) approach. A new discretisation based on the Compatible Discrete Operator (CDO) approach can be used for some other physics. A highly parallel coupling library (Parallel Locator Exchange - PLE) is also available in the distribution to couple other software with different physics, such as for conjugate heat transfer and structural mechanics. For the incompressible solver, the pressure is solved using an integrated Algebraic Multi-Grid algorithm and the velocity components/scalars are computed by conjugate gradient methods or Gauss-Seidel/Jacobi/Krylov solvers.

|
This version assumes that the following modules are loaded:
| Code Block |
|---|
module load intel/2024.0 compiler mkl hpcx/2.19 |
module load python/3.10 |
The end of the InstallHPC.sh script reads:
| Code Block |
|---|
$KERSRC/configure \ |
--disable-openmp |
\ --disable-shared |
\ --disable-gui |
\ --prefix=$KEROPT |
\ CC=mpicc FC=ifx CXX=mpicxx CFLAGS="-O3" FCFLAGS="-O3" |
make -j 12 |
make install |
$KEROPT/bin/code_saturne |
cd $INSTALLPATH |
The code is installed in the folder of your choice (called here Y_P) by typing:
| Code Block |
|---|
./InstallHPC.sh |
If the installation is successful, this should be returned when typing: Y_P/code_saturne-8.2.0/arch/Linux/bin/code_saturne
| Code Block |
