A global residual‐based stabilization for equal‐order finite element approximations of incompressible flows

چکیده
Abstract Due to simplicity in implementation and data structure, elements with equal‐order interpolation of velocity pressure are very popular finite‐element‐based flow simulations. Although such pairs inf‐sup unstable, various stabilization techniques exist circumvent that yield accurate approximations. The most one is the pressure‐stabilized Petrov–Galerkin (PSPG) method, which consists relaxing incompressibility constraint a weighted residual momentum equation. Yet, PSPG can perform poorly for low‐order diffusion‐dominated flows, since first‐order polynomial spaces unable approximate second‐order derivatives required evaluating viscous part term. Alternative normally require additional projections or unconventional structures. In this context, we present novel technique rewrites term as boundary term, thereby allowing complete computation even lowest‐order elements. Our method has similar structure standard residual‐based formulations, but computed globally instead only element interiors. This results scheme does not relax incompressibility, leading improved new simple implement wide range parameters, confirmed by numerical examples.

We study a finite element approximation for the consistent splitting scheme proposed in [11] for the time dependent Navier-Stokes equations. At each time step, we only need to solve a Poisson type equation for each component of the velocity and the pressure. We cast the finite element approximation in an abstract form using appropriately defined discrete differential operators, and derive optim...
متن کاملStabilization Methods for Spectral Element Computations of Incompressible Flows
A stabilization method for the spectral element computation of incompressible flow problems is investigated. It is based on a filtering procedure which consists in filtering the velocity field by a spectral vanishing Helmholtz-type operator at each time step. Relationship between this filtering procedure and SVV-stabilization method, introduced recently in [JCP, 2004, 196(2), p680], is establis...
متن کاملA finite element penalty-projection method for incompressible flows
The penalty–projection method for the solution of Navier–Stokes equations may be viewed as a projection scheme where an augmentation term is added in the first stage, namely the solution of the momentum balance equation, to constrain the divergence of the predicted velocity field. After a presentation of the scheme in the time semi-discrete formulation, then in fully discrete form for a finite ...
متن کاملA Finite Element Method for Viscous Incompressible Thermal Flows
A finite element method for steady-state viscous incompressible thermal flows has been developed. The finite element equations are derived from a set of coupled nonlinear Navier-Stokes equations that consists of the conservation of mass, momentum, and energy equations. These derived finite element equations are validated by developing a corresponding finite element computer program that can be ...
