How to use GPU with MFIX

Hi, I want to use GPU to run MFIX simulations. I need to know what is the first step you recommend to start with this in MFIX tutorials, e.g. what kind of GPU (nvidia, amd), what documentation to learn cuda code, etc.

I’ll appreciate your help

Hi Juan Pablo. The MFiX solver does not use GPU at all. A future version of MFiX may support GPU but this is not available at this time.

Are you looking to use GPU for writing your own UDF code? We don’t have any tutorials or examples that cover this. You are on your own but I’d be interested to hear if you get some result.

I don’t have any specific recommendations - I would suggest you use whatever is available to you and well-supported - probably nvidia - and search google for ‘cuda tutorial’ and find one you like. Good luck.
