چکیده

In this work we present a general approach for developing high-order compact differencing schemes by utilizing the governing differential equation to help approximate truncation error terms. As an illustrative application we consider the stream-function vorticity form of the Navier Stokes equations, and provide driven cavity results. Some extensions to treat non-constant metric coefficients resulting from mapping from a physical to a reference domain and to 3D potential problems are considered. Supporting numerical studies showing the higher-order rates of convergence and the local superconvergence at the nodes are presented.

High Order Compact Finite Difference Schemes for the Helmholtz Equation with Discontinuous Coefficients

In this paper, thirdand fourth-order compact finite difference schemes are proposed for solving Helmholtz equations with discontinuous media along straight interfaces in two space dimensions. To keep the compactness of the finite difference schemes and get global high order schemes, even at the interface where the wave number is discontinuous, the idea of the immersed interface method is employ...

A Compact Finite Difference Method on Staggered Grid for Navier-Stokes Flows

Compact finite difference methods feature high-order accuracy with smaller stencils and easier application of boundary conditions, and have been employed as an alternative to spectral methods in direct numerical simulation and large eddy simulation of turbulence. The underpinning idea of the method is to cancel lower-order errors by treating spatial Taylor expansions implicitly. Recently, some ...
