Adaptive workflow for simulation of RF heaters

Accurate RF (Radio Frequency) simulations of fusion systems like ITER require the definition of high-fidelity analysis geometries that include detailed antenna, reactor wall, and physics regions. Here, this paper will describe a workflow for the execution of adaptive high-performance simulations of RF fusion systems. In this workflow, the simulation input consists of a CAD model attributed with the needed analysis attributes. The analysis mesh is automatically generated and the analysis steps are executed using the time-harmonic Maxwell's equations solved using high-order Nédélec finite elements. A patch recovery-based error estimator is used to drive a conforming mesh adaptation procedure.

High-order algorithmic developments and optimizations for large-scale GPU-accelerated simulations (Milestone CEED-MS36)

The goal of this milestone was to improve the high-order software ecosystem for CEED-enabled ECP applications by making progress on efficient matrix-free kernels targeting forthcoming ECP architectures. These kernels included matrix-free preconditioning and the development of new set of CEED solver bake-off problems. As part of this milestone, we also released the next version of the CEED software stack, CEED-4.0, reported on results from several application collaborations, and documented the efforts of porting to AMD GPUs for Frontier and other modern architectures, such as Fugaku. The specific tasks addressed in this milestone were: (1) Port and run CEED benchmarks/miniapps on Frontier EA systems; (2) Demonstrate performant libCEED integration in MFEM, Nek and applications; (3) Matrix-free preconditioning of high-order operators; (4) Benchmark problems for fast high-order solvers on GPU platforms; and (5) Public release of CEED-4.0. The artifacts delivered include the next version of the CEED software stack, CEED-4.0, the next libCEED release, libCEED-0.8, and a number of developments integrated within applications to improve their GPU and CPU performance and capabilities.
