Fully Multidimensional Flux-Corrected Transport Algorithms for Fluids
نویسنده
چکیده
The theory of flux-corrected transport (FCT) developed by Boris and Book [.I. Co~~pur. P~JLV. II (1973) 38; 18 (1975) 248; 20 (1976) 3971 is placed in a simple, generalized format, and a new algorithm for implementing the critical flux limiting stage in multidimensions without resort to time splitting is presented. The new flux limiting algorithm shows the use of FCT techniques in multidimensional fluid problems for which time splitting would produce unacceptable numerical results, such as those involving incompressible or nearly incompressible flow fields. The “clipping” problem associated with the original one dimensional flux limiter is also eliminated or alleviated. Test results and applications to a two dimensional fluid plasma problem are presented.

A flux-corrected transport algorithm for handling the close-packing limit in dense suspensions
Convection of a scalar quantity by a compressible velocity field may give rise to unbounded solutions or nonphysical overshoots at the continuous and discrete level. In this paper, we are concerned with solving continuity equations that govern the evolution of volume fractions in Eulerian models of disperse two-phase flows. An implicit Galerkin finite element approximation is equipped with a fl...
متن کاملMultidimensional FEM-FCT schemes for arbitrary time-stepping
The flux-corrected-transport paradigm is generalized to finite element schemes based on arbitrary time-stepping. A conservative flux decomposition procedure is proposed for both convective and diffusive terms. Mathematical properties of positivity-preserving schemes are reviewed. A nonoscillatory low-order method is constructed by elimination of negative off-diagonal entries of the discrete tra...
متن کاملA Fully Multidimensional Positive Definite Advection Transport Algorithm with Small Implicit Diffusion
In numerical modeling of physical phenomena it is often necessary to solve the advective transport equation for positive definite scalar functions. Numerical schemes of secondor higher-order accuracy can produce negative values in the solution due to the dispersive ripples. Lower-order schemes, such as the donor cell or Lax-Friedrichs, or higher-order schemes with zeroth-order diffusion added p...

A new generalization of the flux-corrected transport (FCT) methodology to implicit finite element discretizations is proposed. The underlying high-order scheme is supposed to be unconditionally stable and produce time-accurate solutions to evolutionary convection problems. Its nonoscillatory low-order counterpart is constructed by means of mass lumping followed by elimination of negative off-di...
متن کاملToward a reduction of mesh imprinting
This paper is the initial investigation into a new Lagrangian cell-centered hydrodynamic scheme that is motivated by the desire for an algorithm that resists mesh imprinting and has reduced complexity. Key attributes of the new approach include multidimensional construction, the use of flux-corrected transport (FCT) to achieve second order accuracy, automatic determination of the mesh motion th...
