A matrix-free preconditioner applied to CFD

چکیده
We consider the implicit time integration of the compressible Navier-Stokes equations. Each implicit step involves the solution of a costly non linear system. In this paper, we deene a preconditioner to solve each linear system more cheaply within the framework of matrix-free algorithm. The main idea is to reuse the Krylov subspace across the time steps. We demonstrate some properties of the preconditioner and show the practical value of this approach for stii problems which needs excessive small time steps with an explicit method. Un pr econditionneur sans matrice appliqu e a la CFD R esum e : Nous consid erons l'int egration implicite en temps des equations de Navier Stokes compressibles. Chaque pas de temps n ecessite la solution couteuse d'un syst eme non-lin eaire. L'approche consid er ee est celle o u le probl eme est it erativement lin earis e. Dans ce papier, nous d eenissons un pr econditionneur pour r esoudre chaque syst eme lin eaire de mani ere eecace dans le cadre d'algorithme sans matrice. L'id ee est de r eutiliser le sous-espace de Krylov a travers les pas de temps. Nous montrons quelques propri et es de ce pr econditionneur et les exploitons en montrant l'eecacit e de ce pr econditionneur appliqu ee entre autre a la simulation d'un probl eme raide.

Efficient tridiagonal preconditioner for the matrix-free truncated Newton method
In this paper, we study an efficient tridiagonal preconditioner, based on numerical differentiation, applied to the matrix-free truncated Newton method for unconstrained optimization. It is proved that this preconditioner is positive definite for many practical problems. The efficiency of the resulting matrix-free truncated Newton method is demonstrated by results of extensive numerical experim...

We conduct an experimental study on the behavior of several preconditioned iterative methods to solve nonsymmetric matrices arising from computational ̄uid dynamics (CFD) applications. The preconditioned iterative methods consist of Krylov subspace accelerators and a powerful general purpose multilevel block ILU (BILUM) preconditioner. The BILUM preconditioner and an enhanced version of it are ...

متن کاملPreconditioned Generalized Minimal Residual Method for Solving Fractional Advection-Diffusion Equation
Introduction Fractional differential equations (FDEs) have attracted much attention and have been widely used in the fields of finance, physics, image processing, and biology, etc. It is not always possible to find an analytical solution for such equations. The approximate solution or numerical scheme may be a good approach, particularly, the schemes in numerical linear algebra for solving ...
متن کاملAn Algebraic Multilevel Parallelizable Preconditioner for Large-Scale CFD Problems
An eecient parallelizable preconditioner for solving large-scale CFD problems is presented. It is adapted to coarse-grain parallelism and can be used for both shared and distributed-memory parallel computers. The proposed preconditioner consists of two independent approximations of the system matrix. The rst one is a block-diagonal, fully paralleliz-able approximation of the given system. The s...
