Figure 45 Explicit Building Block Power—CD-adapco STAR-CCM+
Figure 46 plots the power consumption for one explicit building block when running the LSTC LS-DYNA
benchmark datasets. The values reported are the power required for one building block while running LS-
DYNA using 256 cores or eight nodes. The values of the average and peak power are shown on the graph,
with the average power displayed in the center of the average power bars and the peak power displayed
on top of the bars.
