Abstract(in English) The fluid computation is widely used in sciences and engineering. In general, these computations require the huge simulation box. If the huge lattice system is computed on one single GPU, it will take several years. Therefore, we have to discuss not only cluster computing but also specialized hardware system for reducing computational time and cost. This paper presents one single FPGA achieved 100-fold speedup compared with one general-purpose CPU. The experimental system can treat 512×512×64 lattice system with one DDR3 SDRAM module. We regard this approach as a solution for expanding these simulation uses, and the details are discussed.
