Modified Method of Adaptive Artificial Viscosity for Solution of Gas Dynamics Problems on Parallel Computer Systems

Abstract

A modification of the adaptive artificial viscosity (AAV) method is considered. This modification is based on one stage time approximation and is adopted to calculation of gasdynamics problems on unstructured grids with an arbitrary type of grid elements. The proposed numerical method has simplified logic, better performance and parallel efficiency compared to the implementation of the original AAV method. Computer experiments evidence the robustness and convergence of the method to difference solution.
