Numerical Analysis of Modular Vms Methods with Nonlinear Eddy Viscosity for the Naiver-stokes Equations

چکیده
This paper presents a stability, convergence and error analysis for two modular, projection-based variational multiscale (VMS) methods for the incompressible Naiver-Stokes equations. In VMS methods, the influence of the unresolved scales onto the resolved small scales is modeled by a Smagorinsky-type turbulent viscosity acting only on the marginally resolved scales. We analyze a method of inducing a VMS treatment of turbulence in an existing NSE discretization through an additional, uncoupled projection step. For two nonlinear eddy viscosity pparameterizations, we prove an error estimate for this approach. Numerical tests are given that confirm and illustrate the theoretical estimates. One method uses a fully nonlinear step inducing the VMS discretization. The second induces a nonlinear eddy viscosity model with a linear solve of much less cost.

متن کاملA connection between filter stabilization and eddy viscosity models
Recently, a new approach for the stabilization of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations for higher Reynolds numbers was introduced based on the nonlinear differential filtering of solutions on every time step of a discrete scheme. In this paper, the stabilization is shown to be equivalent to a certain eddy-viscosity model in LES. This allows a refined analysis and further understanding of ...

This report extends a recent method that calculates an ensemble of solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations efficiently to higher Reynolds number flows. To do so herein we develop and analyze two ensemble eddy viscosity models that do not obviate the good algorithmic properties of the ensemble method.

متن کاملA spectral vanishing viscosity for the LES of turbulent flows within rotating cavities
A spectral vanishing viscosity technique (SVV) is presented for the simulation of 3D turbulent incompressible flows within a rotor–stator cavity. One characteristic of this technique is that the SVV is active only for the short length scales, a feature which is reminiscent of Large Eddy Simulation models. The Spectral Vanishing Viscosity, first introduced by E. Tadmor for the inviscid Burgers e...
