Extrapolation in Time in Thermal Fluid Structure Interaction

We consider time dependent thermal fluid structure interaction. The respective models are the compressible Navier-Stokes equations and the nonlinear heat equation. A partitioned coupling approach via a Dirichlet-Neumann method and a fixed point iteration is employed. As a reference solver a previously developed efficient time adaptive higher order time integration scheme is used. To improve upon this, we work on reducing the number of fixed point coupling iterations. Thus, we explore the idea of extrapolation based on data given from the time integration and derive such methods for SDIRK2. This allows to reduce the number of fixed point iterations further by up to a factor of two with linear extrapolation performing better than quadratic.
