asking for advice about Workstation for CFD -Monte-Carlo simulations

serguei · September 11, 2015, 10:08

Hello all,
I am planning to buy the Workstation (or cluster) for CFD calculations. My projects will include calculations for broad range of Knudsen (continuous, transition, molecular flows). So, I would need to work as well as with Navier - Stokes, as with various versions of Monte - Carlo approaches, hybrid methods.
My budget is up to 20,000 dollars.
What do you may suggest?

Up to 20000!!! That's quite the budget..... Do you know whats important to you in terms of hardware? I mean, do you need high amounts of RAM? fast disk read/write speed? lots of storage? many cores or fewer but faster? do you need a graphics card for GPU computations?
