A high-Order accurate discontinuous finite element method for the numerical solution of the compressible navier-stokes equations

摘要

This paper deals with a high-order accurate discontinuous finite element method for the numerical solution of the compressible Navier-Stokes equations. We extend a discontinuous finite element Discretization originally considered for hyperbolic systems such as The Euler equations to the case of the Navier-Stokes equations by Treating the viscous terms with a mixed formulation. The method Combines two d ideas which re at the basis of the finite volume And of the finite element method, the physics of wave propagation Being accounted for by means of Riemann problems and accuracy Being obtained by means of high-order polynomial; approximations Within elements.
