Abstract
Here we present the part of results obtained in PhD thesis “The investigation of efficiency of physical phenomena
modelling using differential equations on distributed systems” by Andrej Bugajev. This work is dedicated to development
of mathematical modelling software. While applying a numerical method it is important to take into
account the limited computer resources, the architecture of these resources and how do methods affect software
robustness. Three main aspects of this investigation are that software implementation must be efficient, robust and
be able to utilize specific hardware resources. The hardware specificity in this work is related to distributed computations.
The investigation is done for FVM method usage to implement efficient calculations of a very specific heat
transferring problem. That lets to create technological components that make a software implementation robust
and efficient. OpenFOAM open source software is selected as a basis for implementation of calculations and a
few algorithms to solve efficiency issues are proposed. The FVM parallel solver is implemented and analyzed, it is
adapted to heterogeneous cluster Vilkas.
