Abstract: An adaptation technique and algorithms of software implementation of the direct simulation Monte Carlo method for a rarefied gas flow on parallel graphical processors are discussed. Some specific features of graphic processors are illustrated. Several recommendations on writing GPU codes are given.

Keywords: DSMC; numerical algorithms; graphics processor units.
