SUPG finite element computation of viscous compressible flows based on the conservation and entropy variables formulations (Q2367873): Difference between revisions

We present the SUPG-stabilized finite element formulations for the computation of viscous compressible flows based on the conservation of entropy variables. This article is a sequel to the one on inviscid compressible flows by Le Beau et al. [\textit{G. J. Le Beau}, \textit{S. E. Ray}, \textit{S. K. Aliabadi} and \textit{T. E. Tezduyar}, ``SUPG finite element computation of compressible flows with the conservation and entropy variables formulations'', Univ. Minnesota Supercomput. Inst. Res. Rep. 92/26 (1992)]. For the conservation variables formulation, we use the SUPG stabilization technique introduced in \textit{S. K. Aliabadi} and \textit{T. E. Tezduyar} [``Space-time finite element computation of compressible flows involving moving boundaries and interfaces'', Univ. Minnesota Supercomput. Inst. Res. Rep. 92/95 (1992)], which is a modified version of the one described in Le Beau et al. (1992). The formulation is based on the entropy variables.
