Chris,
I know little of OpenFOAM on GPUs.
However I would say that if you are looking for performance gains returns for
your efforts,
look at compiling up the existing code with a modern GCC and use the AVX units
on the latest
Xeons. It is said that OpenFOAM will compile using the Intel compilers.
I would say that looking at Xeon Phi would be a better fit to OpenFOAM. I may
be wrong.
No help to you as you already have GPUs !

Subject: [Beowulf] OpenFOAM and GPUs?
Hi all,
Anyone know what the state of the art (if there is one) for OpenFOAM and
GPUs these days?
All I can find is old (2015) info on the OpenFOAM wiki and the RapidFOAM
stuff on Github which hasn't been touched for over a year ("Latest
commit 9fc614f on 9 Feb 2016"). :-(
cheers,
Chris
