Xcompact3Dis a Fortran 90–95 open-source framework designed for fast and accurate simulations of turbulent flows, targeting CPU-based supercomputers. It is an evolution of the flow solverIncompact3Dwhich was initially designed in France in the mid-90’s for serial processors to solve the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations.Incompact3Dwas then ported to parallel High Performance Computing (HPC) systems in the early 2010’s. Very recently the capabilities ofIncompact3Dhave been extended so that it can now tackle more flow regimes (from incompressible flows to compressible flows at low Mach numbers), resulting in the design of a new user-friendly framework calledXcompact3D. The present manuscript presents an overview ofXcompact3Dwith a particular focus on its functionalities, its ready-to-run simulations and a few case studies to demonstrate its impact.
