Abstract
In order to simulate blood flow in human vascular system, the unsteady, three-dimensional, incompressible Navier-Stokes equations are solved numerically. The solver is capable of dealing with moving boundaries and moving grids. A second-order in time and third-order upwind finite volume method for solving time-accurate incompressible flows utilizing pseudo-compressibility technique is used. For parallel execution, the flow domain is partitioned. Communication between the subdomains of the flow on Riken’s VPP/700E supercomputer is implemented using MPI message-passing library. The code is capable of running on both shared and/or distributed memory architectures.
