Book excerpt: A time-accurate, upwind, finite volume method for computing compressible flows on unstructured grids is presented. The method is second order accurate in space and time and yields high resolution in the presence of discontinuities. For efficiency, the Roe approximate Riemann solver with an entropy correction is employed. In the basic Euler/Navier-Stokes scheme, many concepts of high order upwind schemes are adopted: the surface flux integrals are carefully treated, a Cauchy-Kowalewski time-stepping scheme is used in the time-marching stage, and a multidimensional limiter is applied in the reconstruction stage. However even with these up-to-date improvements, the basic upwind scheme is still plagued by the so-called "pathological behaviors," e.g., the carbuncle phenomenon, the expansion shock, etc. A solution to these limitations is presented which uses a very simple dissipation model while still preserving second order accuracy. This scheme is referred to as the enhanced time-accurate upwind (ETAU) scheme in this paper. The unstructured grid capability renders flexibility for use in complex geometry; and the present ETAU Euler/Navier-Stokes scheme is capable of handling a broad spectrum of flow regimes from high supersonic to subsonic at very low Mach number, appropriate for both CFD (computational fluid dynamics) and CAA (computational aeroacoustics). Numerous examples are included to demonstrate the robustness of the methods. Loh, Ching Y. and Jorgenson, Philip C. E. Glenn Research Center NAS3-0372; WBS 561581.02.08.03.18.02

Book excerpt: High-order accurate methods have the potential to dramatically reduce the computational time needed for aerodynamics simulations. This thesis studies the discretization and efficient convergence to steady state of the high-order accurate finite-volume method applied to the simplified problem of inviscid and laminar viscous two-dimensional flow equations. Each of the three manuscript chapters addresses a specific problem or limitation previously experienced with these schemes. The first manuscript addresses the absence of a method to maintain monotonicity of the solution at discontinuities while maintaining high-order accuracy in smooth regions. To resolve this, a slope limiter is carefully developed which meets these requirements while also maintaining the good convergence properties and computational efficiency of the least-squares reconstruction scheme. The second manuscript addresses the relatively poor convergence properties of Newton-GMRES methods applied to high-order accurate schemes. The globalization of the Newton method is improved through the use of an adaptive local timestep and of a line search algorithm. The poor convergence of the linear solver is improved through the efficient assembly of the exact flux Jacobian for use in preconditioning and to eliminate the additional residual evaluations needed by a matrix-free method. The third manuscript extends the discretization method to the viscous fluxes and boundary conditions. The discretization is demonstrated to achieve the expected order of accuracy. The fourth-order scheme is also shown to be more computationally efficient than the second-order scheme at achieving grid-converged values of drag for two-dimensional laminar flow over an airfoil.

Book excerpt: This research presents novel algorithms for computing flow within an unstructured, collocated, finite volume solver in the presence of non-orthogonality and compressibility in order to extend the range of problems which can be modelled with the University's in-house CFD code: PHYSICA. A new non-orthogonality diffusion correction relaxation parameter has been successfully introduced and tested with benchmarks from the literature. Cases involving geometries meshed with commercial packages have been successfully run with the diffusion correction methods, variable bounding and proper under-relaxation practices. The applicability of a pressure interpolation method has also been tested with these cases. A procedure for solving compressible flow within a finite volume, pressure correction type scheme, has been devised and successfully implemented in different test cases. This method is however prone to numerical diffusion in the presence of shocks, but does work even in the presence of skewed meshes. The method was then tested with the case of an oxygen jet entering a heated furnace, for which experimental data is available for comparison. The method was successful in predicting the axial variables of the jet, and used to develop a turbulence modification model for such jets. The method was finally used to model the deformation of a free surface impinged by a compressible jet, using a novel zonal method called zonal Gas And Liquid Analyser (GALA). Convergence was achieved with the method developed in this research, together with the application of the counter diffusion method to model the moving interface.
