Unified Wall Boundary Treatment for Viscous and Inviscid Flows in the CE/SE Method

摘要

In the setting of the conservation element-solution element (CE/SE) method, a new and unified wall boundary treatment for the Navier-Stokes and Euler Equations is proposed. In essence, the shear stress exerted on the fluid by a wall is modeled as a source term as a part of local spacetime flux conservation in the vicinity of a wall boundary. When the fluid is inviscid, the source term vanishes and the boundary condition reduces to the usual 'slip' condition. On the other hand, when the fluid is viscous, the source-term effect is consistent with the traditional no-slip condition. Numerical results show that the new treatment is robust, efficient, and accurate for viscous and inviscid flows.
