Improved wall boundary treatments are investigated for a family of high-order Godunovtype finite volume schemes based on k-exact polynomial reconstructions in each cell of the primitive variables, via a successive corrections procedure. We focus more particularly on the 1-exact and 2-exact schemes which offer a good trade-off between accuracy and computational efficiency. In both cases, the reconstruction stencil needs to be extended to the boundaries. Additionally, information about wall curvature has to be taken into account, which is done by using a surface model based on bicubic Bézier patches for the walls. The performance of the proposed models is presented for two compressible cases, namely the inviscid flow past a Gaussian bump and the viscous axisymmetric Couette flow.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
