A proper orthogonal decomposition method for nonlinear flows with deforming meshes

摘要

This paper presents a proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) method that uses dynamic basis functions. The dynamic functions are of a prescribed form and do not explicitly depend on time but rather on parameters associated with flow unsteadiness. This POD method has been developed for modeling nonlinear flows with deforming meshes but can also be applied to fixed meshes. The method is illustrated for subsonic and transonic flows in channels with fixed and deforming meshes. This method properly captured flow nonlinearities and shock motion for cases in which the classical POD method failed.
