Meteorological environment / fluid simulation machine

We received a consultation from a customer about a machine for performing meteorological environment simulation using WRF-Chem and fluid simulation using OpenFOAM.
CPU is Xeon, OS is Redhat or CentOS system.Currently, we are using it in a cluster environment with 2 Xeons with 8 core specifications, so we would like to introduce equipment with performance that exceeds existing machines with a budget of about 160 million yen.

Currently, the cluster you are using has 1 cores per node, so if you only need to secure CPU cores for 2 nodes, you can handle even a 8 CPU configuration.In this case, we have a budget, so we considered a 1-socket 2-core configuration, which is twice the size of existing machines.
For existing machines, the amount of memory installed per node was unknown, but considering the generation, it is estimated to be at most 1GB per node.Therefore, the memory capacity in this configuration is 32GB, which is twice that of 32GB x 8 units.

The balance between the number of CPU cores and memory is expected to be compared with the existing cluster configuration, so we will change it according to your request.

Other configurations are provisional specifications, but since RF-Chem can visualize the analysis results by post processing, we have selected entry-class products with some performance for the video card.
I think that WRF-Chem is software that does not depend on the Linux distribution, so Ubuntu 20.04 is used in this configuration.Also, OpenFOAM can be easily installed on Ubuntu.

【Main Specifications】

This case study is based on the RADIC 1CPU Model.
