DLBFoam: An open-source dynamic load balancing model for fast reacting flow simulations in OpenFOAM

Published in Computer Physics Communications, 2021

DLBFoam addresses computational load imbalance in parallel reactive flow simulations in OpenFOAM by distributing chemical ODE solutions efficiently. When combined with reference mapping, practical speed-ups up to 10x are demonstrated.
