Summary

Generate implementation issues for feature E5-F7: Warp/GPU Translation (Follow-on).

Translate the Python-native non-isothermal condensation implementation to NVIDIA Warp (wp.func / wp.kernel) for GPU acceleration. This is a follow-on feature that ships after the Python implementation (E5-F1 through E5-F5) is complete and validated. The GPU translation follows patterns established in E3-F3 (Warp Integration and GPU Kernels).

Feature Plan

Document: adw-docs/dev-plans/features/E5-F7-warp-gpu-translation.md

Parent Epic: E5: Non-Isothermal Condensation with Latent Heat (adw-docs/dev-plans/epics/E5-non-isothermal-condensation.md)

Phases to Generate

Phase Description Size
E5-F7-P1 Translate latent heat pure functions to wp.func kernels with tests M (~80 LOC)
E5-F7-P2 Translate CondensationLatentHeat.step() to Warp kernel with tests L (~120 LOC)
E5-F7-P3 Update development documentation for GPU feature XS (~30 LOC)

Dependencies

ADW Instructions

When processing this issue:

  1. Read the feature plan document: adw-docs/dev-plans/features/E5-F7-warp-gpu-translation.md
  2. Read the parent epic for context: adw-docs/dev-plans/epics/E5-non-isothermal-condensation.md
  3. For each phase in the Phase Checklist (E5-F7-P1 through E5-F7-P3), create an implementation issue with:
    • Full technical details from the feature plan
    • Specific file paths from the feature plan's scope section
    • Test file paths (co-located in module tests/ directories)
    • Co-located testing: tests ship with implementation in every phase
    • Coverage target: 80-85% per phase
  4. Set dependency chain: E5-F7-P1 → E5-F7-P2 → E5-F7-P3
  5. Label all phases with agent, blocked, type:complete, model:default

Files to Create/Modify

  • Create: Warp function files (following E3-F3 patterns — exact paths TBD based on E3-F3 structure)
    • wp.func equivalents of get_thermal_resistance_factor and get_mass_transfer_rate_latent_heat
    • wp.kernel for non-isothermal condensation step
  • Modify: docs/Examples/Dynamics/non_isothermal_condensation_example.py — add GPU usage examples
  • Modify: adw-docs/dev-plans/features/index.md — GPU completion status
  • Create: GPU parity and performance test files (following E3-F3 test patterns)

Testing Strategy

Unit Tests

Test File Phase Coverage Target
TBD (follows E3-F3 test patterns) P1 Warp functions
TBD (follows E3-F3 test patterns) P2 Warp kernels

Key Test Cases

  1. Function parity: thermal_resistance_factor_wp matches get_thermal_resistance_factor for same inputs
  2. Rate parity: mass_transfer_rate_latent_heat_wp matches Python version
  3. Kernel parity: Full step kernel matches CondensationLatentHeat.step()
  4. Energy tracking: GPU energy output matches CPU sum(dm * L)
  5. Performance: GPU faster than CPU for >= 10000 particles (marked @pytest.mark.slow)

Numerical Tolerance

  • Float32: < 1e-6 relative error (GPU default precision)
  • Float64: < 1e-12 relative error
  • Tests gracefully skip when Warp not installed (pytest.importorskip)

Risks and Mitigations

Risk Mitigation
E3-F3 Warp patterns not yet finalized Feature is explicitly deferred; wait for E3-F3 to stabilize
Float32 precision loss on GPU Test both float32 and float64; document precision trade-offs
Warp not available in all environments Skip GPU tests when Warp not installed
Performance regression Benchmark tests with explicit particle count thresholds
