Abstract
We are going to study gas dynamics in protoplanetary disks using adaptive mesh hydro code, FLASH. Important advancement can be done by making 3D simulations including gas self gravity. This challenging task requires high computational power. Thus the application requests computing time for a test account to study the performance gain with respect to the currently used small PC-cluster.
