An implicit finite volume method for the solution of 3D low Mach number viscous flows using a local preconditioning technique. (English) Zbl 1134.76045

Summary: This paper presents a cell-centered high-order finite volume scheme for solution of three-dimensional (3D) Navier-Stokes equations at low Mach number. The system of nonlinear equations is solved by means of a fully implicit pseudo-transient scheme. Each pseudo-time step is solved by a Newton-GMRes procedure. A local preconditioning technique is used to scale the speed of sound and to improve the system condition number for low Mach number and low cell Reynolds number. This preconditioning is applied to the AUSM+up flux vector splitting function. The method is tested on 2D and 3D low Mach number laminar flows.
