Abstract:The class of multidimensional upwind residual distribution (RD) schemes has been developed in the past decades as an attractive alternative to the finite volume (FV) and finite element (FE) approaches. Although they have shown superior performances in the simulation of steady two-dimensional and three-dimensional inviscid and viscous flows, their extension to the simulation of unsteady flow fields is still a topic of intense research ICCFD2, International Conference on Computational Fluid Dynamics 2, Sydney, Australia, 15–19 July 2002; M. Mezine, R. Abgrall, Upwind multidimensional residual schemes for steady and unsteady flows].Recently the space–time RD approach has been developed by several researchers Int. J. Numer. Methods Fluids 40 (2002) 573; J. Comput. Phys. 188 (2003) 16; Á.G. Cs??k, Upwind residual distribution schemes for general hyperbolic conservation laws and application to ideal magnetohydrodynamics, PhD thesis, Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, 2002; J. Comput. Phys. 188 (2003) 16; R. Abgrall; M. Mezine, Construction of second order accurate monotone and stable residual distribution schemes for unsteady flow problems] which allows to perform second order accurate unsteady inviscid computations. In this paper we follow the work done in Int. J. Numer. Methods Fluids 40 (2002) 573; Á.G. Cs??k, Upwind residual distribution schemes for general hyperbolic conservation laws and application to ideal magnetohydrodynamics, PhD thesis, Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, 2002]. In this approach the space–time domain is discretized and solved as a (d+1)-dimensional problem, where d is the number of space dimensions. In Int. J. Numer. Methods Fluids 40 (2002) 573; Á.G. Cs??k, Upwind residual distribution schemes for general hyperbolic conservation laws and application to ideal magnetohydrodynamics, PhD thesis, Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, 2002] it is shown that thanks to the multidimensional upwinding of the RD method, the solution of the unsteady problem can be decoupled into sub-problems on space–time slabs composed of simplicial elements, allowing to obtain a true time marching procedure. Moreover, the method is implicit and unconditionally stable for arbitrary large time-steps if positive RD schemes are employed.We present further development of the space–time approach of Int. J. Numer. Methods Fluids 40 (2002) 573; Á.G. Cs??k, Upwind residual distribution schemes for general hyperbolic conservation laws and application to ideal magnetohydrodynamics, PhD thesis, Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, 2002] by extending it to laminar viscous flow computations. A Petrov–Galerkin treatment of the viscous terms Project Report 2002-06, von Karman Institute for Fluid Dynamics, Belgium, 2002; J. Dobe?, Implicit space–time method for laminar viscous flow], consistent with the space–time formulation has been investigated, implemented and tested. Second order accuracy in both space and time was observed on unstructured triangulation of the spatial domain.The solution is obtained at each time-step by solving an implicit non-linear system of equations. Here, following Int. J. Numer. Methods Fluids 40 (2002) 573; Á.G. Cs??k, Upwind residual distribution schemes for general hyperbolic conservation laws and application to ideal magnetohydrodynamics, PhD thesis, Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, 2002], we formulate the solution of this system as a steady state problem in a pseudo-time variable. We discuss the efficiency of an explicit Euler forward pseudo-time integrator compared to the implicit Euler. When applied to viscous computation, the implicit method has shown speed-ups of more than a factor 50 in terms of computational time.
