The high-order methods is difficultly applied in various elements. The development of a 3D solver by using the spectral difference method of unstructured grids via mixed elements is presented. A mixed tri-prism and tetrahedral grid is firstly refined using one-level h-refinement to generate a hexahedral grid while keeping the curvature of wall boundaries. The SD method designed for hexahedral elements can subsequently be applied for refining the unstructured grid. Through a series of numerical tests, the present method is high-order accurate for both inviscid and viscous flows is demonstrated; the results obtained for inviscid and viscous compressible flows compare well with other published results.

AbstractWe propose an entropy stable high-resolution finite volume scheme to approximate systems of two-dimensional symmetrizable conservation laws on unstructured grids. In particular we consider Euler equations governing compressible flows. The scheme is constructed using a combination of entropy conservative fluxes and entropy-stable numerical dissipation operators. High resolution is achieved based on a linear reconstruction procedure satisfying a suitable sign property that helps to maintain entropy stability. The proposed scheme is demonstrated to robustly approximate complex flow features by a series of benchmark numerical experiments.
