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.

Explicit Solver

In order to efficiently address complex problems in hydrodynamics, the advances in the development of a new method are presented here. This method aims at finding a good compromise between computational efficiency, accuracy, and easy handling of complex geometries. The chosen method is an Explicit Cartesian Finite Volume method for Hydrodynamics (ECFVH) based on a compressible (hyperbolic) solver, with a ghost-cell method for geometry handling and a Level-set method for the treatment of biphase-flows. The explicit nature of the solver is obtained through a weakly-compressible approach chosen to simulate nearly-incompressible flows. The explicit cell-centered resolution allows for an efficient solving of very large simulations together with a straightforward handling of multi-physics. A characteristic flux method for solving the hyperbolic part of the Navier-Stokes equations is used. The treatment of arbitrary geometries is addressed in the hyperbolic and viscous framework. Viscous effects are computed via a finite difference computation of viscous fluxes and turbulent effects are addressed via a Large-Eddy Simulation method (LES). The Level-Set solver used to handle biphase flows is also presented. The solver is validated on 2-D test cases (flow past a cylinder, 2-D dam break) and future improvements are discussed.

Navier Stokes Equations

A numerical procedure to solve three-dimensional incompressible flows in arbitrary shapes is presented. The conservative form of the primitive-variable formulation of the time-dependent Navier-Stokes equations written for a general curvilinear coordiante system is adopted. The numerical scheme is based on an overlapping grid combined with opposed differencing for mass and pressure gradients. The pressure and the velocity components are stored at the same location: the center of the computational cell which is used for both mass and the momentum balance. The resulting scheme is stable and no oscillations in the velocity or pressure fields are detected. The method is applied to test cases of ducting and the results are compared with experimental and numerical data.
