Nor-Tech Launches HPC Demo Cluster

Nor-Tech, a provider of HPC (high-performance computing) for CAE solutions, has launched a Demo Cluster for simulation applications.

Simulations run on the latest Intel CPU and accelerators from Intel Xeon Phi as well as NVIDIA GPUs (graphics processing units). The cluster can run a range of applications including:

• ANSYS Fluent
• LS-DYNA
• CONVERGE CFD (computational fluid dynamics)
• COMSOL Multiphysics

“Our Demo Cluster is designed for organizations that ultimately need something beyond a workstation. Clients who have made the transition typically see significant improvement in run times; better resolution; better utilization of their engineering staff; and shorter time to market. It’s a great way for engineers to demonstrate return-on-investment for management,” says David Bollig, president and CEO at Nor-Tech. “It’s an excellent resource for companies that may have recently hired someone with supercomputing skills, but they have nothing to run jobs on. However, it’s also a good way for people to see just how easy our HPCs are to use. If you can use a desktop, you can use one of our HPCs—this sets our solutions apart from competitors.”
