In this contribution we show how consumer graphic processors (GPUs) in conjunction with a suited numerical method can be used for the inexpensive design and optimization of small and medium sized rf components. The underlying scheme is implemented in an open source framework which is readily available. As an application example we present simulations of a possible CERN SPL [1] Higher Order Mode (HOM) coupler design.
