We propose new parallel block ILU (Incomplete LU) factorization preconditioners for a nonsymmetric block-tridiagonal M-matrix. Theoretial properties of these block preconditioners are studied to see the convergence rate of the preconditioned iterative methods, Lastly, numerical results of the right preconditioned GMRES and BiCGSTAB methods using the block ILU preconditioners are compared with those of these two iterative methods using a standard ILU preconditioner to see the effectiveness of the block ILU preconditioners.
