    Abstract

    A new parallel version of the method LU-SGS (Lower-upper symmetric Gauss-Seidel) based on a multilevel decomposition of the unstructured computational mesh is proposed. The advantages of the proposed approach are demonstrated by computing the supersonic flow around the RAM-C geometry. The method is well scalable when a large number of threads are used on the processor Intel Xeon Phi.
