Description

The Numerical Wind Tunnel is a three dimensional CFD code that uses an anisotropic Cartesian grid and grid adaptation, so that cells are concentrated around the flow features. This contribution describes the methodology adopted for the parallelization of the code and presents results of some initial simulations. (author)
