Abstract

The article studies the approach to parallelization of computations when modeling the non-stationary process of a plate laser radiation. The study aimed to determine the appropriateness of the parallelization and to analyze its results. The process of laser heating is described by a non-stationary three-dimensional heat equation. To solve it we used a method of splitting along the coordinates with adaptive construction of difference grids. In the method for a grid construction to transfer to a new time step, we have assessed an error of computation. With this purpose, we have applied the method of splitting with different values of difference steps five times. The study showed that time spent on calculation of an error and construction of the grid to calculate the next time layer was reduced at least 1.5 times. At the same time, the overall acceleration of computation is approximately 15%. Such a low value can be explained by the fact that a significant portion of processing time covers the formation of arrays for further display of the results recorded on the hard disk. The algorithm of parallelization and the research results can be used in the construction of systems for computer modeling of processes with application of adaptive methods
