High-order residual-based compact schemes for aerodynamics and aeroacoustics

Residual-Based Compact (RBC) schemes are reviewed and applied to realistic compressible flow problems. The principle and advantages of high-order RBC schemes are first presented. Then, an implementation in the elsA code of the 3rd-order RBC scheme is used for RANS calculations of the transonic flow over the ONERA M-6 wing and of the flow in a CME2 compressor stage. Finally, the 7th-order RBC scheme is applied to the complete Euler equations for computing a planar aeroacoustic problem and the propagation of a spinning acoustic mode in an axisymetric aeroengine inlet. Numerical results demonstrate the accuracy and efficiency of the RBC approach.
