This paper presents the parallelization aspects of a solution method for the fully coupled 3D compressible Navier-Stokes equations. The algorithmic thrust of the approach, embedded in a finite element code NS3D, is the linearization of the governing equations through Newton methods, followed by a fully coupled solution of velocities and pressure at each non-linear iteration by preconditioned conjugate gradient-like iterative algorithms. For the matrix assembly, as well as for the linear equation solver, efficient coarse-grain parallel schemes have been developed for shared memory machines, as well as for networks of workstations, with a moderate number of processors. The parallel iterative schemes, in particular, circumvent some of the difficulties associated with domain decomposition methods, such as geometry bookkeeping and the sometimes drastic convergence slow-down of partitioned non-linear problems.
