چکیده

We propose an anisotropic, patch-based adaptive mesh re nement algorithm for the nite-volume method solving partial di erential equations on Cartesian and mapped grids. For large ow gradients, such as shock waves and ame fronts, that are aligned with one grid direction, anisotropic re nement can provide a similar reduction in error using much less grid cells compared to isotropic re nement. To enable anisotropic re nement, additional logistics are needed to track anisotropic patches, and new operations for transferring data between patches of anisotropic re nement are introduced. In this study, we focus on developing these new operators associated with a single-level grid and explore the solutions to issues associated with the operators across grid levels. For example, methods for tagging regions for anisotropic re nement and modi cations to the Berger-Rigoutsos grid generation algorithm are considered. The savings in cell count are expected to more than o set the extra program logistics. Validation of the anisotropic algorithm is achieved by comparison to the existing isotropic algorithm for an unsteady shock problem.

A Comparison of Three Adaptive Finite Element Re nement Techniques for Incompressible Navier-Stokes Equations Using a CBS Scheme

The numerical solution of incompressible Navier-Stokes equations for ows involving complex geometries is greatly a ected by mesh resolution. In these ows, some regions may need ner mesh than others. Adaptive Mesh Re nement (AMR) techniques enable the mesh to be locally re ned, based on error distribution in the previous analysis. In this paper, three adaptive re nement methods, namely, Supercon...

An Adaptive Cartesian Grid Method for Unsteady Compressible Flow in Irregular Regions

In this paper we describe an adaptive Cartesian grid method for modeling timedependent inviscid compressible ow in irregular regions. In this approach a body is treated as an interface embedded in a regular Cartesian mesh. The single grid algorithm uses an unsplit second-order Godunov algorithm followed by a corrector applied to cells at the boundary. The discretization near the uid-body interf...
