Example Submission Script

The example submission script below is suitable for running on the ARC cluster:

#!/bin/bash

#SBATCH --nodes=2
#SBATCH --ntasks-per-node=48
#SBATCH --time=00:15:00
#SBATCH --job-name=CFXExample
#SBATCH --partition=short

module load ANSYS/2024R2

MPI_HOSTS=$(scontrol show hostnames $SLURM_JOB_NODELIST | tr "\n" "," | sed 's/.$//')

cfx5solve -def /apps/common/benchmarks/ANSYS/CFX-bench/perf_Airfoil_50M_R16.def \
       -double -part-large \
       -part $SLURM_NTASKS -batch -parallel -par-host-list $MPI_HOSTS \
       -start-method "Open MPI Distributed Parallel"

Note

This example is customised for the standard ANSYS CFX benchmark Airfoil 50M and uses the OpenMPI libraries built for ARC.
