Compact third-order multidimensional upwind scheme for Navier-Stokes simulations

Caraeni, Doru LU and Fuchs, Laszlo LU (2002) In Theoretical and Computational Fluid Dynamics 15(6). p.373-401
Abstract
A new compact third-order scheme for the solution of the unsteady Navier-Stokes equations on unstructured grids is proposed. The scheme is a cell-based algorithm, belonging to the class of Multidimensional Upwind schemes, which uses a finite-element reconstruction procedure over the cell to achieve third order (spatial) accuracy. Derivation of the scheme is given. The asymptotic accuracy, for steady/unsteady inviscid or viscous flow situations, is proved using numerical experiments. Those results are compared with the performances of a second-order multidimensional upwind scheme. The new compact high-order discretization proves to have excellent parallel scalability, which makes it well suited for large-scale computations on parallel... (More)

Those results are compared with the performances of a second-order multidimensional upwind scheme. The new compact high-order discretization proves to have excellent parallel scalability, which makes it well suited for large-scale computations on parallel supercomputers. Our studies show clearly the advantages of the new compact third-order scheme compared with the classical second-order Multidimensional Upwind scheme. (Less)
