Multigrid line smoothers for higher order upwind discretizations of convection- dominated problems (Q1387875): Difference between revisions

A new class of multigrid line smoothers for higher-order discretization of convection dominated problems on rectangular grids is presented and discussed. The behavior of the smoothers is analyzed theoretically using the Fourier method and a two-grid analysis. A parallel tri-line variant is presented and evaluated. The smoothers are applied to scalar convection-diffusion problems, discretized with limiters and systems of incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. Various numerical experiments are presented and discussed in details.
