✦ Synopsis


Adaptive time stepping is an important tool in Computational Fluid Dynamics for controlling the accuracy of simulations and for enhancing their efficiency. This paper presents a systematic study of three classes of implicit and linearly implicit time stepping schemes with adaptive time step control applied to a 2D laminar flow around a cylinder: h-schemes, diagonal-implicit Runge-Kutta (DIRK) methods and Rosenbrock-Wanner (ROW) methods. The time step is controlled using embedded methods. It is shown that several ROW methods clearly outperform the more standard h-schemes and the DIRK methods. The results depend on a prescribed tolerance in the time step control algorithm, whose appropriate choice varies from scheme to scheme.

## Abstract We examine the convergence characteristics of iterative methods based on a new preconditioning operator for solving the linear systems arising from discretization and linearization of the steady‐state Navier–Stokes equations. For steady‐state problems, we show that the preconditioned pr
