An Efficient Dynamic Mesh Generation Method for Complex Multi-Block Structured Grid
نویسندگان
چکیده
Aiming at a complex multi-block structured grid, an efficient dynamic mesh generation method is presented in this paper, which is based on radial basis functions (RBFs) and transfinite interpolation (TFI). When the object is moving, the multi-block structured grid would be changed. The fast mesh deformation is critical for numerical simulation. In this work, the dynamic mesh deformation is completed in two steps. At first, we select all block vertexes with known deformation as center points, and apply RBFs interpolation to get the grid deformation on block edges. Then, an arc-lengthbased TFI is employed to efficiently calculate the grid deformation on block faces and inside each block. The present approach can be well applied to both two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) problems. Numerical results show that the dynamic meshes for all test cases can be generated in an accurate and efficient manner. AMS subject classifications: 65Z05

Quadtree and Octree Grid Generation
Engineering analysis often involves the accurate numerical solution of boundary value problems in discrete form. Hierarchical quadtree (or octree) grid generation offers an efficient method for the spatial discretisation of arbitrary-shaped two- (or three-) dimensional domains. It consists of recursive algebraic splitting of sub-domains into quadrants (or cubes), leading to an ordered hierarchi...

In this article we discuss a strategy for speeding up the solution of the NavierStokes equations on highly complex solution domains such as complete aircraft, spacecraft, or turbomachinery equipment. We have used a nite-volume code for the (non-turbulent) Navier-Stokes equations as a testbed for implementation of linked numerical and parallel processing techniques. Speedup is achieved by the Ta...
متن کاملParallel Block-structured Adaptive Mesh Refinement for Incompressible Navier-stokes Equations
The numerical simulation of fluid flow involving complex geometries is greatly limited by the spatial grid resolution required. These flows often contain small regions with complex motions, while the remaining flow is relatively smooth. Adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) enables the spatial grid to be refined in local regions that require finer grids to resolve the flow. This work describes an appr...
