Abstract

GASNet-EX is a portable, open-source, high-performance communication library designed to efficiently support the networking requirements of Partitioned Global Address Space (PGAS) runtime systems and other alternative models in future exascale machines. The library is an evolution of the popular GASNet communication system, building upon over 15 years of lessons learned. GASNet is a language-independent, networking middleware layer that provides network-independent, high-performance communication primitives including Remote Memory Access (RMA) and Active Messages (AM). It has been used to implement parallel programming models and libraries such as UPC, Co-Array Fortran, Titanium, Legion, Chapel, and many others. The interface is primarily intended as a compilation target and for use by runtime library writers (as opposed to end users), and the primary goals are high performance, interface portability, and expressiveness. GASNet stands for "Global-Address Space Networking".

Large-scale Multiphysics Simulations of Small Modular Reactors Operating in Natural Circulation

Thanks to the advancements in high-performance computing, advanced modeling and simulation have become crucial in driving the development and deployment of next-generation nuclear reactors, such as small modular reactors (SMRs). SMRs offer the promise of cost-effective baseload electricity production and improved safety, while addressing some of the challenges associated with large reactor designs, such as high capital costs and extended construction timelines. As part of the Exascale Computing Project, the large-scale multiphysics simulation of an entire SMR primary system has been achieved by combining computational fluid dynamics and neutronics. In addition to the successful demonstration of full-core SMR simulations, the current study integrated the impact of natural circulation into the system. Natural circulation is the primary mechanism driving coolant circulation in SMRs. The mass flow rate in the core depends on the core power, and a numerical model has been developed to predict it. The pressure drop caused by the helical coil steam generator was also accounted for by developing a pressure drop correlation based on high-fidelity large eddy simulation results, further improving prediction accuracy. In conclusion, the results of the study demonstrate that the implemented natural circulation model is effective in predicting the responses of SMR full-core multiphysics simulations.

Energy Exascale Earth System Model v2.1.0

First release of version 2.1 of the Energy Exascale Earth System Model. [ATM] The atmosphere component remains EAM. There are no major changes in the default configuration since 2.0. New features include: A semi-lagrangian tracer transport for theta-l dycore, a new algorithm for finding the tropopause, new RRM mesh configurations. Add and update SSP370 and SSP585 cases. Restore the FIDEAL case. [LAND] The land component is ELM. There are no major changes in the default configuration since 2.0. Several option features have been added including: implementation of topography-based subgrid structure (topounits) and accompanying parameterizations and atmospheric forcing downscaling methods; a new plant hydraulics scheme; two-way land-river hydrological coupling through the infiltration of floodplain water; an implementation of perennial crops; updates to the SNICAR-AD snow radiative transfer model; and implementation of soil erosion and sediment yield in ELM-Erosion. Each of these new changes is modular in design and can be turned on or off as the user specifies; they are currently being tested in different “BGC” configurations. [OCEAN] The ocean component remains MPAS-Ocean. Major change since version 2.0 include the addition of the Fox-Kemper et al. 2011 parameterization for submesocale eddies, a correction for barotropic thickness consistency that reduces divergence noise, and the addition of an ocean carbon conservation analysis member. [SEAICE] The sea-ice component remains MPAS-Seaice. Major changes since version 2.0 include: A correction to how shortwave parameters are interpolated in the snicar-ad 5-band radiation scheme, the addition of a sea ice carbon conservation analysis member, updates to the default sea ice biogeochemistry namelist parameters to be consistent with version 2.0 improvements to nitrogen cycling and a correction in the ice-ocean dissolved organic nitrogen coupling. [LAND ICE] The land-ice component remains MPAS-Albany-landIce (MALI). Major changes since 2.0 include an update to the MALI version and the Greenland mesh.[RIVER] The river model is MOSART. There are no major changes in the default configuration since 2.0. A major new optional feature is two-way river-ocean hydrological coupling between MOSART and MPAS-O. This change can be turned on or off as the user specifies, and is being tested in different configurations. [COUPLER] The coupler remains cpl7/MCT. Major changes since version 2.0 include: Carbon budget calculated when heat/water budgets active. Fix a bug in land-atm fluxes for tri-grid configurations. [OTHER] a small bug in the zenith angle calculation was fixed in the data models.
