Abstract
- • Detailed description of the Spectral Difference Raviart-Thomas (SDRT) approach on 2D hybrid grid. • Linear stability analysis based on an eigenvalues analysis. • Determination of stable SDRT schemes for a 5 th and 6 th order of accuracy. • Convergence study on regular and irregular triangular grids as well as on regular hybrid mesh. • Validation on 2D Euler and Navier-Stokes test cases on high-order- triangular and hybrid grids. In the present paper, a stable Spectral Difference formulation on triangles is defined using a flux polynomial expressed in the Raviart-Thomas basis up to the sixth-order of accuracy. Compared to the literature on the Spectral Difference approach, the present work increases the order of accuracy that the stable formulation can deal with. The proposed scheme is based on a set of flux points defined in the paper. The sets of points leading to a stable formulation are determined using a Fourier stability analysis of the linear advection equation coupled with an optimization process. The proposed Spectral Difference formulation differs from the Flux Reconstruction method on hybrid grids: the distinction between the two approaches is highlighted through the definition of the number of interior flux points. Validation starts from a convergence study using Euler equations and continues with simulations of laminar viscous flows over the NACA0012 airfoil using quadratic triangles and around a cylinder using a hybrid grid.
