FENaPack: FEniCS Navier-Stokes preconditioning package

FENaPack is a package implementing preconditioners for Navier-Stokes problem using FEniCS and PETSc packages. In particular, variants of PCD (pressure-convection-diffussion) preconditioner from [1], [2] are implemented.

Usage

To use FENaPack matching version of FEniCS (version 2019.1.0) compiled with PETSc, petsc4py and mpi4py is needed. Note that FENaPack uses same version numbering as FEniCS and follows its release schedule with a short lag.

To install FENaPack from source do:

pip3 install [--user|--prefix=...] [-e] .

in the source/repository root dir. Editable install using -e allows to use FENaPack directly from source directory while editing it which is suitable for development.

You can install latest FENaPack release form PyPI:

pip3 install [--user|--prefix=...] fenapack

or install latest development version from Github:

pip3 install [--user|--prefix=...] git+https://github.com/blechta/fenapack

To start experimenting:

cd demo/navier-stokes-pcd
python3 demo_navier-stokes-pcd.py --help
python3 demo_navier-stokes-pcd.py [opts]
mpirun -n 16 python3 demo_navier-stokes-pcd.py [opts]
