1 Transpose-free Fast Fourier Transform for Turbulence Simulation

Pseudo-spectral method is one of the most accurate techniques for simulating turbulent flows. Fast Fourier transform (FFT) is an integral part of this method. In this paper, we present a new procedure to compute FFT in which we save operations during interprocess communications by avoiding transpose of the array. As a result, our transpose-free FFT is 15 % to 20 % faster than FFTW
