PyFR (Python Flow Research)

PyFR is an open-source Python based framework for solving advection-diffusion type problems on streaming architectures using the Flux Reconstruction approach of Huynh. The framework is designed to solve a range of governing systems on mixed unstructured grids containing various element types. It is also designed to target a range of hardware platforms via use of an in-built domain specific language derived from the Mako templating engine.

The current release (PyFR 1.15.0) has the following capabilities:

  • Governing Equations – Euler, Navier Stokes
  • Dimensionality – 2D, 3D
  • Element Types – Triangles, Quadrilaterals, Hexahedra, Prisms, Tetrahedra, Pyramids
  • Platforms – CPU Clusters, Nvidia GPU Clusters, AMD GPU Clusters
  • Spatial Discretisation – High-Order Flux Reconstruction
  • Temporal Discretisation – Explicit and Implicit (via Dual Time-Stepping)
  • Precision – Single, Double
  • Mesh Files Imported – Gmsh (.msh)
  • Solution Files Exported – Unstructured VTK (.vtu, .pvtu)
