A Newton-Krylov type algorithm is designed and implemented for a pseudo compressible Navier-Stokes solver in an incompressible Cavity flow. Both GMRES and BICGSTAB (Krylov-subspace) techniques are employed for the solving the linear solver resulting from the residual linearization. ILU-0 and ILU-1 and Thomas algorithm are used for preconditioning. The results show promising convergence acceleration especially for the GMRES/ILU-1 case compared to the classic Approximate Factorization method.

The purpose of this paper is to present a numerical study of flow fields for the NREL S805 and S809 airfoils using a spatially second-order symmetric total variational diminishing scheme. The steady two-dimensional flow is modeled as turbulent, viscous, and incompressible and is formulated in the pseudo-compressible form. The turbulent flow is closed by the Baldwin-Lomax algebraic turbulence model. Numerical solutions are obtained by the implicit approximate-factorization method. The accuracy of the numerical results is compared with the Delft two-dimensional wind tunnel test data. For comparison, the Eppler code results are also included. Numerical solutions of pressure and lift coefficients show good agreement with the experimental data, but not the drag coefficients. To properly simulate the post-stall flow field, a better turbulence model should be used.

This paper describes a three-dimensional compressible Navier-Stokes code, which has been developed for analysis of turbocompressor blade rows and other internal flows. Despite numerous numerical techniques and statement that Computational Fluid Dynamics has reached state of the art, issues related to successful simulations represent valuable database of how particular tech?nique behave for a specifie problem. This paper deals with rapid numerical method accurate enough to be used as a design tool. The mathematical model is based on System of Favre averaged Navier-Stokes equations that are written in relative frame of reference, which rotates with constant angular velocity around axis of rotation. The governing equations are solved using finite vol?ume method applied on structured grids. The numerical procedure is based on the explicit multistage Runge-Kutta scheme that is coupled with modem numerical procedures for convergence acceleration. To demonstrate the accuracy of the described numer?ical method developed software is applied to numerical analysis of flow through impeller of axial turbocompressor, and obtained results are compared with available experimental data.

Incompressible 2-D Navier-stokes equations for various values of Reynolds number with and without partial slip conditions are studied numerically. The Lid-Driven cavity (LDC) with uniform driven lid problem is employed with vorticity - Stream function (VSF) approach. The uniform mesh grid is used in finite difference approximation for solving the governing Navier-stokes equations and developed MATLAB code. The numerical method is validated with benchmark results. The present work is focused on the analysis of lid driven cavity flow of incompressible fluid with partial slip conditions (imposed on side walls of the cavity). The fluid flow patterns are studied with wide range of Reynolds number and slip parameters.

In this paper we present effective preconditioning techniques for solving the nonsymmetric systems that arise from the discretization of the Navier–Stokes equations. These linear systems are solved using either Krylov subspace methods or the Richardson scheme. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our techniques in handling time-accurate as well as steady-state solutions. We also compare our solvers with those published previously.

A multigrid method for convergence acceleration is used for solving coupled fluid and turbulence transport equations. For turbulence closure a low-Reynolds-number q-ω turbulence model is employed, which requires very fine grids in the near wall regions. Due to the use of fine grids, convergence of most iterative solvers slows down, making the use of multigrid techniques especially attractive. However, special care has to be taken on the strong nonlinear turbulent source terms during restriction from fine to coarse grids. Due to the hyperbolic character of the governing equations in supersonic flows and the occurrence of shock waves, modifications to standard multigrid techniques are necessary. A simple and effective method is presented that enables the multigrid scheme to converge. A strong reduction in the required number of multigrid cycles and work units is achieved for different test cases, including a Mack 2 flow over a backward facing step.

Accurate simulation of the fuel-air mixing environment is crucial for high-fidelity scramjet calculations. We compute the velocity fields of jet into supersonic freestream flow and cavity flow typical of scramjet flame-holding applications at different scale resolutions using the partially-averaged Navier–Stokes (PANS) method. We present a sequence of variable resolution computations to demonstrate the potential of PANS method for high-speed mixing environment calculations.
