The Parabolic Spline Method (PSM) for conservative transport problems

A new and efficient parabolic spline based remapping algorithm is developed and tested herein. To ensure mass conservation, the scheme solves an integral form of the transport equation rather than the differential form. The integrals are computed from reconstructed parabolic splines with mass conservation constraints. For higher dimensions, this remapping can be used within a standard directional splitting methodology or within the flow‐dependent cascade splitting approach. A grid and sub‐grid based monotonic filter is also incorporated into the overall scheme. A truncation error analysis of the scheme is presented and discussed in terms of results from test cases. The analysis shows that although it has a similar truncation error in the converged limit as that of the widely used Piecewise Parabolic Method (PPM) for infinitely differentiable functions, PSM is more accurate than PPM for problems with slow spectral decay. Additionally, an operation count of the scheme is given which demonstrates the computational advantage of PSM compared to PPM. © Crown copyright 2005.

Recent Development on the Conservation Property of Chimera

An estimate on the conservation error due to the non-conservative data interpolation scheme for overset grids is given in this paper. It is shown that the conservation error is a first-order term if second-order conservative schemes are employed for the Chimera grids and if discontinuities are located away from overlapped grid interfaces. Therefore in the limit of global grid refinement, valid numerical solutions should be obtained with a data interpolation scheme. In one demonstration case the conservation error in the original Chimera scheme was shown to affect flow even without discontinuities on coarse to medium grids. The conservative Chimera scheme was shown to give significantly better solutions than the original Chimera scheme on these grids with other factors being the same.     

The Lagrange–Galerkin method for the two‐dimensional shallow water equations on adaptive grids

The weak Lagrange–Galerkin finite element method for the two‐dimensional shallow water equations on adaptive unstructured grids is presented. The equations are written in conservation form and the domains are discretized using triangular elements. Lagrangian methods integrate the governing equations along the characteristic curves, thus being well suited for resolving the non‐linearities introduced by the advection operator of the fluid dynamics equations. An additional fortuitous consequence of using Lagrangian methods is that the resulting spatial operator is self‐adjoint, thereby justifying the use of a Galerkin formulation; this formulation has been proven to be optimal for such differential operators. The weak Lagrange–Galerkin method automatically takes into account the dilation of the control volume, thereby resulting in a conservative scheme. The use of linear triangular elements permits the construction of accurate (by virtue of the second‐order spatial and temporal accuracies of the scheme) and efficient (by virtue of the less stringent Courant–Friedrich–Lewy (CFL) condition of Lagrangian methods) schemes on adaptive unstructured triangular grids. Lagrangian methods are natural candidates for use with adaptive unstructured grids because the resolution of the grid can be increased without having to decrease the time step in order to satisfy stability. An advancing front adaptive unstructured triangular mesh generator is presented. The highlight of this algorithm is that the weak Lagrange–Galerkin method is used to project the conservation variables from the old mesh onto the newly adapted mesh. In addition, two new schemes for computing the characteristic curves are presented: a composite mid‐point rule and a general family of Runge–Kutta schemes. Results for the two‐dimensional advection equation with and without time‐dependent velocity fields are illustrated to confirm the accuracy of the particle trajectories. Results for the two‐dimensional shallow water equations on a non‐linear soliton wave are presented to illustrate the power and flexibility of this strategy.

A numerical method for 3D viscous incompressible flows using non-orthogonal grids

This paper presents a numerical method for fluid flow in complex three-dimensional geometries using a body-fitted co-ordinate system. A new second-order-accurate scheme for the cross-derivative terms is proposed to describe the non-orthogonal components, allowing parts of these terms to be treated implicitly without increasing the number of computational molecules. The physical tangential velocity components resulting from the velocity expansion in the unit tangent vector basis are used as dependent variables in the momentum equations. A coupled equation solver is used in place of the complicated pressure correction equation associated with grid non-orthogonality. The co-ordinate-invariant conservation equations and the physical geometric quantities of control cells are used directly to formulate the numerical scheme, without reference to the co-ordinate derivatives of transformation. Several two- and three-dimensional laminar flows are computed and compared with other numerical, experimental and analytical results to validate the solution method. Good agreement is obtained in all cases.     

Wet/dry areas method for interfacial (free surface) flow

In this paper, a new numerical method is developed for two‐dimensional interfacial (free surface) flows, based on the control volume method and conservative integral form of the Navier–Stokes equations with a standard staggered grid. The new method deploys two continuity equations, the continuity equation of the mass conservation for better convergence of the implicit scheme and the continuity equation of the volume conservation for the equation of pressure correction. The convection terms (the total momentum flux) on the surfaces of control volume are accurately calculated from the wet area exposed to the water, and the dry area exposed to the air. The numerical results produced by the new numerical method agree very well with the analytical solution, experimental images and experimentally measured velocity.

OVERLAPPING GRIDS FOR THE SIMULATION OF PARTICLE INTERACTION AT THE MICRO SCALE

This paper describes the use of overlapping grids for the calculation of flow around single and multipleparticle configurations at the micro scale. The basic equations for calculation are those for conservation of mass and momentum which are solved using a common Finite-Volume formulation. The hydrodynamic particle-particle and particle-wall interaction can be calculated by using an overlapping or Chimera grid scheme. With the grid structuring procedure it is possible to use simple and structured grids around the particles and the overall main grid geometry. The particle grids are lapped over the main grid such that they can move independently after each time step without remeshing the whole geometry. The paper gives results for the validation of the code developed for general test cases, for a rotating ellipsoid in simple shear flow, the flow around particles attached to a wall, the motion of a particle in the vicinity of a wall and some results for the flow through a packed bed configuration.     

A moving mesh BGK scheme for multi‐material flows

In this paper, a moving mesh BGK scheme (MMBGK) for multi‐material flow computations is proposed. The basic idea of constructing the MMBGK is to couple the Lagrangian method, which tracks material interfaces and keeps the interfaces sharp, with a remapping‐free ALE‐type kinetic method within each single material region, where the kinetic method is based on the BGK (Bhatnagar–Gross–Krook) model. Within each single material region, a numerical flux formulation is developed on moving meshes from motion of microscope particles, and the mesh velocity is determined by requiring both mesh adaptation for accuracy and robustness, such that the grids are moving towards to the regions with high flow gradients in a way of diffusive mechanism (velocity) to adjust the distances between neighboring cells, thus increasing the numerical accuracy. To keep the sharpness of material interfaces, the Lagrangian velocity and flux are constructed at the interfaces only. Consequently, a BGK‐scheme‐based ALE‐type method (i.e., the MMBGK scheme) for multi‐material flows is constructed. Numerical examples in one and two dimensions are presented to illustrate the accuracy and robustness of the MMBGK scheme. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Accurate and consistent particle tracking on unstructured grids

A new numerical method for particle tracking (Lagrangian particle advection) on 2‐D unstructured grids with triangular cells is presented and tested. This method combines key attributes of published methods, including streamline closure for steady flows and local mass conservation (uniformity preservation). The subgrid‐scale velocity reconstruction is linear, and this linear velocity field is integrated analytically to obtain particle trajectories. A complete analytic solution to the 2‐D system of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) governing particle trajectories within a grid cell is provided. The analytic solution to the linear system of locally mass‐conserving constraints that must be enforced to obtain the coefficients in the ODEs is also provided. Numerical experiments are performed to demonstrate that the new method has substantial advantages in accuracy over previously published methods and that it does not suffer from unphysical particle clustering. The method can be used not only in particle‐tracking applications but also as part of a semi‐Lagrangian advection scheme.Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
