In this paper the Micro-Macro Parareal algorithm was adapted to PDEs. The parallel-in-time approach requires two meshes of different spatial resolution in order to compute approximations in an iterative way to a predefined reference solution. When fast convergence in few iterations can be accomplished the algorithm is able to generate wall-time reduction in comparison to the serial computation. We chose the laminar flow around a cylinder benchmark on 2-dimensional domain which was simulated with the open-source software OpenFoam. The numerical experiments presented in this work aim to approximate states local in time and space and the diagnostic lift coefficient. The Reynolds number is gradually increased from 100 to 1,000, before the transition to turbulent flows sets in. After the results are presented the convergence behavior is discussed with respect to the Reynolds number and the applied interpolation schemes.
