Simulation of Navier-Stokes Equations on the Intel Quantum SDK

16:00 - 18:00, November 9, 2022
IN PERSON at Leibniz Rechenzentrum, Boltzmannstraße 1, 85748 Garching b. München
& ONLINE, (send an email to bqcx@lrz.de for link)

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is a key scientific and engineering research area that is computationally demanding. High Performance Computing (HPC) systems have been used over the years to crunch data in CFD but there is still massive need for fast large-scale simulations. It has been shown that Quantum Computing alongside HPC holds the potential of achieving greater speed up in CFD calculations. In this presentation, we demonstrate how Navier-Stokes equations can be simulated on a Quantum simulator. In our approach we first discretize a steady-state one dimensional Navier-Stoke equation and apply the HHL algorithm to transform it into quantum states, and then measure the corresponding results and compare the result to that of its numerical equivalent.
