Robert Caulk proposed the following answer:
Hello Zoheir,

The short answer is, "no."  FlowEngine is not parallelized with MPI -
and since ThermalEngine depends on FlowEngine for all advection
information - neither is ThermalEngine. The project of making all of it
parallelized on MPI would be a sizable endeavor.

FlowEngine is, however, parallelized with GPU [1][2].

Cheers,

Robert
