This document describes Appro’s
experience providing a supercomputer for the
use of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)
at the Renault F1 Team’s technical centre
in Enstone, Oxfordshire, United Kingdom. The
solution is based on a balanced design using
AMD Opteron™ processors and InfiniBand
networking.
We will discuss the value of a balanced high
performance computing (HPC) architecture highlighting
the Appro Xtreme-X™ Supercomputer. In
addition, this white paper highlights the
need for scalable performance, power and cooling
efficiency, and high availability computing
in a redundant and manageable framework. The
resulting system provides an advanced platform
in which to create the Renault F1 Team’s
car designs using CFD in a virtual wind tunnel.
