Implicit high-order gas-kinetic schemes for compressible flows on three-dimensional unstructured meshes
share
In the previous studies, the high-order gas-kinetic schemes (HGKS) have achieved successes for unsteady flows on three-dimensional unstructured meshes. In this paper, to accelerate the rate of convergence for steady flows, the implicit non-compact and compact HGKSs are developed. For non-compact scheme, the simple weighted essentially non-oscillatory (WENO) reconstruction is used to achieve the spatial accuracy, where the stencils for reconstruction contain two levels of neighboring cells. Incorporate with the nonlinear generalized minimal residual (GMRES) method, the implicit non-compact HGKS is developed. In order to improve the resolution and parallelism of non-compact HGKS, the implicit compact HGKS is developed with Hermite WENO (HWENO) reconstruction, in which the reconstruction stencils only contain one level of neighboring cells. The cell averaged conservative variable is also updated with GMRES method. Simultaneously, a simple strategy is used to update the cell averaged gradient by the time evolution of spatial-temporal coupled gas distribution function. To accelerate the computation, the implicit non-compact and compact HGKSs are implemented with the graphics processing unit (GPU) using compute unified device architecture (CUDA). A variety of numerical examples, from the subsonic to supersonic flows, are presented to validate the accuracy, robustness and efficiency of both inviscid and viscous flows.
