✦ Synopsis


A computationally efficient multigrid algorithm for upwind edge-based finite element schemes is developed for the solution of the two-dimensional Euler and Navier -Stokes equations on unstructured triangular grids. The basic smoother is based upon a Galerkin approximation employing an edge-based formulation with the explicit addition of an upwind-type local extremum diminishing (LED) method. An explicit time stepping method is used to advance the solution towards the steady state. Fully unstructured grids are employed to increase the flexibility of the proposed algorithm. A full approximation storage (FAS) algorithm is used as the basic multigrid acceleration procedure.

Two compact higher-order methods are presented for solving the Euler equations in two dimensions. The flow domain is discretized by triangles. The methods use a characteristic-based approach with a cell-centered finite volume method. Polynomials of order 0 through 3 are used in each cell to represen

The application of standard multigrid methods for the solution of the Navier±Stokes equations in complicated domains causes problems in two ways. First, coarsening is not possible to full extent since the geometry must be resolved by the coarsest grid used. Second, for semi-implicit time-stepping sc
