Abstract:
The spatial discretization of unsteady incompressible Navier-Stokes equations is stated as a system of Differential Algebraic Equations (DAEs), corresponding to the conservation of momentum equation plus the constraint due to the incompressibility condition. Asymptotic stability of Runge-Kutta and Rosenbrock methods applied to the solution of the resulting index-2 DAE system is analyzed. A critical comparison of Rosenbrock, semi-implicit and fully implicit Runge-Kutta methods is performed, in terms of order of convergence and stability. Numerical examples, considering a Discontinuous Galerkin formulation with piecewise solenoidal approximation, demonstrate the applicability of the approaches, and compare their performance with classical methods for incompressible flows.
