Techniques for the incompressible NS equationsPressure correction schemesArtificial compressibility approachVorticity-streamfunction formulationDensity-based approachME469B/3/GI58
Techniques for the incompressible NS equationsVorticity-streamfunction approachIt is effectively a change-of-variables; introducing the streamfunction and the vorticityvector the continuity is automatically satisfied and the pressure disappears (if needed thesolution of a Poisson-like equation is still required). It is advantageous in 2D because itrequires the solution of only two PDEs but the treatment of BCs is difficult. In additionin 3D the PDEs to be solved are sixArtificial compressibility approachA time-derivative (of pressure) is added to the continuity equation with the goal oftransforming the incompressible NS into a hyperbolic system and then to apply schemessuitable for compressible flows. The key is the presence of a user-parameter β (relatedto the artificial speed of sound) that determines the speed of convergence to steady stateME469B/3/GI59
Density-based solvers for the NS equationsThe equation are written in compressible form and, for low Mach numbers,the flow is effectively incompressibleThe energy equation is added to link pressureand density through the equation of stateIn compact (vector) form:ME469B/3/GI60
Density-based solvers for the NS equationsStiffness occurs because of the disparity between fluid velocity and speedof sound (infinite in zero-Mach limit)The equations are solved in terms of the primitive variablesNote that the continuity becomes (again) anevolution equation for the pressurewhereME469B/3/GI61

Multigrid accelerationBasic idea: the global error (low-frequency) on a fine grid appears as a localerror (high-frequency) on coarse meshes.Why it is important: linear system solver like Gauss-Seidel are effective inremoving high-frequency errors but VERY slow for global errors. Notethat, on structured, grid line-relaxation (or ADI-type) schemes can be usedto improve the performance of Gauss-Seidel; on unstructured grid similarconcepts are extremely difficult to implement.Convergence Speed: number of iterations on the finest grid required toreach a given level of convergence is roughly independent on the number ofgrid nodes (multigrid convergence)ME469B/3/GI69
Two-grid scheme1.2.3.4.5.α smoothings are performed on the fine grid to reduce the highfrequency components of the errors (pre-smoothing, αS)the residual (error) is transferred to next coarser level (restriction, R)γ iterations are performed on this grid level for the “correction” equationthe problem is transferred back to the fine grid (prolongation, P)β smoothings are performed on the fine grid to remove the highfrequency errors introduced on the coarse mesh (post-smoothing, βS)Parameters to be defined are α, β, γME469B/3/GI70
