Abstract

An adaptive technique for controlโ€volume methods applied to second order elliptic equations in two dimensions is presented. The discretization method applies to initially Cartesian grids aligned with the principal directions of the conductivity tensor. The convergence behavior of this method is investigated numerically. For solutions with low Sobolev regularity, the found L^2^ convergence order is two for the potential and one for the flow density. The system of linear equations is better conditioned for the adaptive grids than for uniform grids. The test runs indicate that a pure fluxโ€based refinement criterion is preferable.ยฉ 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Numer Methods Partial Differential Eq, 2008

A novel method to generate body-fitted grids based on the direct solution for three scalar functions is derived. The solution for scalar variables x, p and n is obtained with a conventional finite volume method based on a physical space formulation. The grid is adapted or re-zoned to eliminate the r

## Abstract This paper describes a finiteโ€volume volumeโ€ofโ€fluid (VOF) method for simulating viscous free surface flows on dynamically adaptive quadtree grids. The scheme is computationally efficient in that it provides relatively fine grid resolution at the gasโ€“liquid interface and coarse grid den

An algorithm, based on the overlapping control volume (OCV) method, for the solution of the steady and unsteady two-dimensional incompressible Navier -Stokes equations in complex geometry is presented. The primitive variable formulation is solved on a non-staggered grid arrangement. The problem of p
