A hybrid conservative finite difference/finite element scheme is proposed for the solution of the unsteady incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. Using velocity-pressure variables on a non-staggered grid system, the solution is obtained with a projection method based on the resolution of a pressure

✦ Synopsis
An unsteady incompressible Navier-Stokes solver that uses a dual time stepping method combined with spatially high-order-accurate finite differences, is developed for large eddy simulation (LES) of turbulent flows. The present solver uses a primitive variable formulation that is based on the artificial compressibility method and various convergence-acceleration techniques are incorporated to efficiently simulate unsteady flows. A localized dynamic subgrid model, which is formulated using the subgrid kinetic energy, is employed for subgrid turbulence modeling. To evaluate the accuracy and the efficiency of the new solver, a posteriori tests for various turbulent flows are carried out and the resulting turbulence statistics are compared with existing experimental and direct numerical simulation (DNS) data.
