************************************************************************************
Code_Saturne 4.2.2 is installed for KNLs. It is also linked to PETSC, but the
default linear solvers are the native ones.
************************************************************************************
Installation
************************************************************************************

The installation script is:

SATURNE_4.2.2/InstallHPC_with_PETSc.sh

The path to PETSC (official released version, and therefore assumed to be installed
on the machine) should be added to the aforementioned script.

After typing ./InstallHPC_with_PETSc.sh the code should be installed and code_saturne be found under:

PATH_TO_CODE_SATURNE/SATURNE_4.2.2/code_saturne-4.2.2/arch/Linux/bin/code_saturne, which should return:

Usage: ./code_saturne <topic>

Topics:
  help
  autovnv
  bdiff
  bdump
  compile
  config
  create
  gui
  info
  run
  salome
  submit

Options:
  -h, --help  show this help message and exit

************************************************************************************
Two cases are dealt with, TGV_256_CS_OPENMP.tar.gz to test the native solvers, and
CAVITY_13M_FOR_KNLs_WITH_PETSC.tar.gz to test Code_Saturne and PETSC on KNLs
************************************************************************************
First test case: TGV_256_CS_OPENMP.tar.gz
************************************************************************************

In TGV_256_CS_OPENMP.tar.gz are found the mesh and the set of subroutines for Code_Saturne on KNLs, i.e.:

TGV_256_CS_OPENMP/MESH/mesh_input_256by256by256
TGV_256_CS_OPENMP/ARCHER_KNL/SRC/*

To prepare a run, it is required to set up a "study" as, for instance:

PATH_TO_CODE_SATURNE/SATURNE_4.2.2/code_saturne-4.2.2/arch/Linux/bin/code_saturne create --study NEW_TGV_256_CS_OPENMP KNL

The mesh has to be copied from TGV_256_CS_OPENMP/MESH/mesh_input_256by256by256 into NEW_TGV_256_CS_OPENMP/MESH/.

The subroutines contained in TGV_256_CS_OPENMP/KNL/SRC should be copied into NEW_TGV_256_CS_OPENMP/KNL/SRC

In the DATA subdirectory of NEW_TGV_256_CS_OPENMP/KNL the path to the mesh has to be set as:

cd DATA
cp REFERENCE/cs_user_scripts.py .
edit cs_user_scripts.py
At line 138, change None to "../MESH/mesh_input_256by256by256"

At this stage, everything is set to run the simulation:

cd TGV_256_CS_OPENMP/KNL
PATH_TO_CODE_SATURNE/SATURNE_4.2.2/code_saturne-4.2.2/arch/Linux/bin/code_saturne run --initialize
cd RESU/YYYYMMDD-HHMM
submit the job

************************************************************************************
Second test case: CAVITY_13M_FOR_KNLs_WITH_PETSC.tar.gz
************************************************************************************

In CAVITY_13M.tar.gz are found the mesh and the set of subroutines for PETSC and KNLs, i.e.:

CAVITY_13M/MESH/mesh_input
CAVITY_13M/KNL/SRC/*

To prepare a run, it is required to set up a "study" as, for instance:

PATH_TO_CODE_SATURNE/SATURNE_4.2.2/code_saturne-4.2.2/arch/Linux/bin/code_saturne create --study NEW_CAVITY_13M PETSC_KNL

The mesh has to be copied from CAVITY_13M/MESH/mesh_input into NEW_CAVITY_13M/MESH/.

The subroutines contained in CAVITY_13M/KNL/SRC should be copied into NEW_CAVITY_13M/PETSC_KNL/SRC

In the DATA subdirectory of NEW_CAVITY_13M/PETSC_KNL the path to the mesh has to be set as:

cd DATA
cp REFERENCE/cs_user_scripts.py .
edit cs_user_scripts.py
At line 138, change None to "../MESH/mesh_input"

At this stage, everything is set to run the simulation:

cd NEW_CAVITY_13M/PETSC_KNL
PATH_TO_CODE_SATURNE/SATURNE_4.2.2/code_saturne-4.2.2/arch/Linux/bin/code_saturne run --initialize
cd RESU/YYYYMMDD-HHMM
submit the job
