Abstract:A pressure-based fully-coupled flow algorithm is developed for the control volume finite element method (CVFEM), which covers speeds up to the transonic regime. The CVFEM is used because it presents a number of advantages as compared to the popular cell-centered finite volume method (CCFVM), while retaining the properties of the finite volume method (FVM) in terms of flux conservation and numerical integration simplicity. The implementation presents a novel weak formulation of Dirichlet boundary conditions to … Show more
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.
