When we shall fill this page, I offer to make common identifications, because in different issues was used different notation.

Also I beg everybody to help me with original works. Later I shall write, what is necessary. If anyone have literature connected with convective schemes, please drop me a line.

Discretisation Schemes for convective terms in General Transport Equation. Finite-Volume Formulation, structured grids

Introduction

Here is described the discretization schemes of the convective terms in the finite-volume equations. The accuracy, numerical stability and the boundness of the solution depends on the numerical scheme used for these terms. The central issue is the specification of an appropriate relationship between the convected variable, stored at the cell centre and its value at each of the cell faces.

Basic Equations of CFD

All the conservation equations can be written in the same generic differential form:

$\frac {\partial( \rho \phi )} {\partial t} + \frac{\partial}{\partial x_{i}} \left( \rho U \phi - \Gamma_{\phi} \frac{\partial\phi}{\partial x_{i}}\right)=S_{\phi}$

(1)

Equation (1) is integrated over a control volume and the following discretised equation for $\boldsymbol{\phi}$ is produced:

$\boldsymbol{ J_{h}- J_{l} + J_{n}- J_{s} + J_{e}- J_{w} + D_{h} - D_{l} + D_{n} - D_{s} + D_{e} - D_{s} = S_{p}}$

(2)

where $\boldsymbol{S_{p}}$ is the source term for the control volume $\boldsymbol{P}$ , and $\boldsymbol{J_{f}}$ and $\boldsymbol{D_{f}}$ represent, respectively, the convective and diffusive fluxes of $\boldsymbol{\phi}$ across the control-volume face $\boldsymbol{f}$ $\boldsymbol{(f=h,l,n,s,e,w)}$

The convective fluxes through the cell faces are calculated as:

$\boldsymbol{ J_{f}=C_{f}\phi_{f} }$

(1)

where $C_{f}$ is the mass flow rate across the cell face $f$ . The convected variable $\phi_{f}$ associated with this mass flow rate is usually stored at the cell centres, and thus some form of interpolation assumption must be made in order to determine its value at each cell face. The interpolation procedure employed for this operation is the subject of the various schemes proposed in the literature and the accuracy, stability and boundedness of the solution depends on the procedure used.

In general, the value of $\boldsymbol{\phi_{f}}$ can be explicity formulated in terms of its neighbouring nodal values by a functional relationship of the form:

$\phi_{f}=P \left( \phi_{nb} \right)$

(1)

where $\boldsymbol{\phi_{nb}}$ denotes the neighbouring-node $\boldsymbol{\phi}$ values. Combining equations (\ref{eq3}) through (\ref{eq4a}), the discretised equation becomes:

$\left\{ D_{h} + C_{h} \left[ P \left( \phi_{nb} \right) \right]_{h} \right\} - \left\{ D_{l} + C_{l} \left[ P \left( \phi_{nb} \right) \right]_{l} \right\} + \left\{ D_{n} + C_{n} \left[ P \left( \phi_{nb} \right) \right]_{n} \right\} - \left\{ D_{s} + C_{s} \left[ P \left( \phi_{nb} \right) \right]_{s} \right\} + \left\{ D_{e} + C_{e} \left[ P \left( \phi_{nb} \right) \right]_{e} \right\} - \left\{ D_{w} + C_{w} \left[ P \left( \phi_{nb} \right) \right]_{w} \right\} = S_{p}$

(1)

Convection Schemes

All the convection schemes involve a stencil of cells in which the values of $\boldsymbol{\phi}$ will be used to construct the face value $\boldsymbol{\phi_{f}}$

Where flow is from left to right, and $\boldsymbol{f}$ is the face in question.

$\boldsymbol{u}$ - mean Upstream node

$\boldsymbol{c}$ - mean Central node

$\boldsymbol{d}$ - mean Downstream node

.

Basic Discretisation schemes

Central Differencing Scheme (CDS)

The most natural assumption for the cell-face value of the convected variable $\boldsymbol{\phi_{f}}$ would appear to be the CDS, which calculates the cell-face value from:

$\phi_{f}=0.5 \left( \phi_{c} + \phi_{d} \right)$

(1)

This scheme is 2nd-order accurate, but is unbounded so that unphysical oscillations appear in regions of strong convection and also in the presence of discontinuities such as shocks. The CDS may be used directly in very low Reynolds-number flows where diffusive effects dominate over convection.

Upwind Differencing Scheme (UDS)

The UDS assumes that the convected variable at the cell fase $\boldsymbol{f}$ is the same as the upwind cell-centre value:

$\boldsymbol{\phi_{f}= \phi_{c} }$

(1)

The UDS is unconditionally bounded and highly stable, but as noted earlier it is only 1st-order accurate in terms of truncation error and may produce severe numerical diffusion. The scheme is therefore highly diffusive when the flow direction is skewed relative to the grid lines.

Hybrid Differencing Scheme (HDS also HYBRID)

The HDS of Spalding [1972] switches the discretisation of the convection terms between CDS and UDS according to the local cell Peclet number as follows:

$\phi_{f}=0.5 \left( \phi_{c} + \phi_{d} \right) \mbox{ for } Pe \triangleleft 2$

(1)

$\phi_{f}= \phi_{c} \mbox{ for } Pe \triangleright 2$

(1)

The cell Peclet number is defined as:

$Pe= \rho \left| U_{f} \right| A_{f}/D_{f}$

(1)

in which $\boldsymbol{A_{f}}$ and $\boldsymbol{D_{f}}$ are respectively, the cell-face area and physical diffusion coefficient. When $\boldsymbol{Pe\triangleright 2}$ ,CDS calculations tends to become unstable so that theHDS reverts to the UDS. Physical diffusion is ignored when $\boldsymbol{Pe\triangleright 2}$ .

The HDS scheme is marginally more accurate than the UDS, because the 2nd-order CDS will be used in regions of low Peclet number.

High Resolution Schemes (HRS)

Classification of High Resolution Schemes

HRS can be classified as linear or non-linear, where linear means their coefficients are not direct functions of the convected variable when applied to a linear convection equation. It is important to recognise that linear convection schemes of 2nd-order accuracy or higher may suffer from unboudedness, and are not unconditionally stable.

Non-linear schemes analyse the solution within the stencil and adapt the discretisation to avoid any unwanted behavior, such as unboundedness (see Waterson [1994]). These two types of schemes may be presented in a unified way by use of the Flux-Limiter formulation (Waterson and Deconinck [1995]), which calculates the cell-face value of the convected variable from:

$\phi_{f}= \phi_{c} + 0.5 B \left( r \right) \left( \phi_{c}-\phi_{u} \right)$

(1)

where $\boldsymbol{B \left( r \right)}$ is termed a limiter function and the gradient ration $\boldsymbol{r}$ is defined as:

$r= \left( \phi_{d} - \phi_{c} \right) / \left( \phi_{c} - \phi_{u} \right)$

(1)

The generalisation of this approach to handle non-uniform meshes has been given by Waterson [1994]

From equation (\ref{eq9}) it can be seen that $\boldsymbol{B=1}$ gives the UDS and $\boldsymbol{B=r}$ gives the CDS.

Please note that linear does not mean first order

Linear schemes

Linear schemes are those for which $\boldsymbol{B}$ is linear function of $\boldsymbol{r}$

$\boldsymbol{B(r) = 0}$ is upwind differencing (first-order accurate)

$\boldsymbol{B(r) = r}$ is central differencing (second-order accurate)

Kappa Schemes and Other schemes

Higher order schemes are usually members of the $\boldsymbol{B \left( \kappa \right)}$ class, for which

$B\left( r \right) = 0.5 \left[ \left( 1 + \kappa \right) r + \left( 1 - \kappa \right) \right]$

(1)

Using this equation face variable can be expressed:

in usual variabales

$f_{w}=f_{C}+ \frac{1}{4}\left[\left( 1+\kappa \right)\left(f_{D}-f_{C}\right)+\left(1-\kappa \right) \left( f_{D}-f_{U} \right)\right]$

(1)

in normalised variables

$\hat{f_{w}}=\hat{f_{w}}+\frac{1}{4} \left[\left( 1+\kappa \right)\left( 1-\hat{f_{C}}\right)+ \left( 1-\kappa \right)\hat{f_{C}}\right]$

(1)

The main schemes are

$\boldsymbol{\kappa = 1}$ CDS (central differencing scheme)

$\boldsymbol{\kappa = -1}$ QUICK (quadaratic upwind scheme)

$\boldsymbol{\kappa = 0.5}$ LUS (linear upwind scheme)

$\boldsymbol{\kappa = 0 }$ Fromm

$\boldsymbol{\kappa = 1/3}$ CUS (cubic upwind scheme)

Non-Linear schemes

Non-linear schemes are those for which $\boldsymbol{B}$ is not a linear function of $\boldsymbol{r}$ . They fall into three categories, depending on the linear schemes on which they are based.

$\boldsymbol{(a)}$ QUICK based:

Numerical Implementation of HRS

The HRS schemes can be introduced into equation (\ref{eq4b}) by using the deffered correction procedure of Rubin and Khosla [1982]. This procedure express the cell-face value $\boldsymbol{\phi_{f}}$ by:

$\phi_{f}=\phi_{f}\left(U \right) + \phi^{'}_{f}$

(1)

where $\boldsymbol{\phi^{'}_{f}}$ is a higher-order correction which represents the difference between the UDS face value $\boldsymbol{\phi_{f}\left(U \right)}$ and the higher-order scheme value $\boldsymbol{\phi_{f}\left(H \right)}$ , i.e.

$\phi^{'}_{f}= \phi_{f}\left(H \right) + \phi_{f}\left(U \right)$

(1)

If equation (\ref{eq10a}) is substituted into equation (\ref{eq4b}), the resulting discretised equation is:

$\begin{matrix} \left\{ D_{h} + C_{h} \phi_{h} \left( U \right) \right\} - \left\{ D_{l} + C_{l} \phi_{l} \left( U \right) \right\} & + & \\ \left\{ D_{n} + C_{n} \phi_{n} \left( U \right) \right\} - \left\{ D_{s} + C_{s} \phi_{s} \left( U \right) \right\} & + & \\ \left\{ D_{e} + C_{e} \phi_{e} \left( U \right) \right\} - \left\{ D_{w} + C_{w} \phi_{w} \left( U \right) \right\} & &= S_{p} + B_{p} \end{matrix}$

(1)

where $\boldsymbol{B_{p}}$ is the deferred-correction source terms, given by:

$B_{p} = C_{l}\phi^{'}_{l} - C_{h}\phi^{'}_{h} + C_{s}\phi^{'}_{s} - C_{n}\phi^{'}_{n} + C_{w}\phi^{'}_{w} - C_{e}\phi^{'}_{e}$

(1)

This treatment leads to a diagonally dominant coefficient matrix since it is formed using the UDS.

The final form of the discretised equation:

$\begin{matrix} a_{P}\phi_{P}= & & a_{N}\phi_{N} &+& a_{S}\phi_{S} &+& a_{E}\phi_{E} \\ & + & a_{W}\phi_{W} &+& a_{H}\phi_{H} &+& a_{L}\phi_{L} \\ & + & a_{T}\phi_{T} &+& S_{p} &+& B_{p} \end{matrix}$

(1)

Subscrit $\boldsymbol{P}$ represents the current computational cell; $\boldsymbol{N, S, E, W, H, L}$ represent the six neighbouring cells and $\boldsymbol{T}$ represents the previous timestep (transistent cases only)

The coefficients contain the appropriate contributions from the transient, convective and diffusive terms in (\ref{eq1})

Normalised Variables Diagram (NVD)

According to Leonard [1988], for any (in general nonlinear) characteristics in the normalized variable diagram (see figure below):

Passing through $\boldsymbol{Q}$ is necessary and sufficient for second-order accuracy
Passing through $\boldsymbol{Q}$ with a slope of 0.75 (for a uniform grid) is necessary and sufficient for third-order accuracy

The horizontal and vertical coordinates of point $\boldsymbol{Q}$ in the normalized variable diagram and the slope of the characteristics at the point $\boldsymbol{Q}$ for preserving the third-order accuracy for a nonuniform grid can be obtained by simple algebra using eqs. [.....]

$X_{Q} = \frac{C_{2}}{C_{1}+C_{2}} \sigma^{+}_{w} + \frac{1-C_{2}}{1-C_{2}+C_{3}} \sigma^{-}_{w}$

(1)

$Y_{Q} = \frac{C_{2} \left( 1 + C_{1} \right) }{C_{1} + C_{2}} \sigma^{+}_{w} + \frac{ \left( 1 - C_{2} \right) \left( 1 + C_{3} \right) } { 1 - C_{2} + C_{3} } \sigma^{-}_{w}$

(1)

$S_{Q} = \left( 1 + C_{1} \right)\left( 1 - C_{2} \right)\sigma^{+}_{w} + C_{2} \left( 1 + C_{3} \right) \sigma^{-}_{w}$

(1)

where

$C_{1} = \frac{\Delta X_{W}}{\Delta X_{W}+\Delta X_{WW}}, C_{2} = \frac{\Delta X_{W}}{\Delta X_{W}+\Delta X_{P}}, C_{3} = \frac{\Delta X_{P}}{\Delta X_{P}+\Delta X_{E}}$

(1)

For a uniform qrid, $\boldsymbol{X_{Q} = 0.5, Y_{Q} = 0.75}$ and $\boldsymbol{S_{Q} = 0.75}$

Convection Boundedness Criterion (CBC)

Gaskell P.H. and Lau A.K.C. (1988), "Curvative-compensated convective transport: SMART, a new boundedness-preserving trasport algorithm", International Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, Vol. 8, No. 6, pp. 617-641.

Gaskel and Lau have formulated the CBC as follows. A numerical approximation to $\hat{\phi_{w}}$ is bounded if:

for $0 \leq \hat{\phi_{W}} \leq 1$ , $\hat{\phi}$ is bounded below by the function $\hat{\phi_{w}} = \hat{\phi_{W}}$ and above by unity and passes through the points (0,0) and (1,1)

for $\hat{\phi_{W}} \triangleleft 0$ or $\hat{\phi_{W}} \triangleright 1$ , $\hat{\phi}$ is equal to $\hat{\phi_{W}}$

The CBC is clearly illustrated in figure below, where the line $\hat{\phi_{w}} = \hat{\phi_{W}}$ and the shaded area are the region over which the CBC is valid. The importance of the CBC is to provide a sufficient and necessary condition for guaranteeing the bounded solution if at most three neighbouring nodal values are used to approximate face values. It is well known that the positivity of finite-difference coefficients is also a sufficient condition for boundedness, but this is overly stringent, for the existense of negative coefficients does not neccesarily lead to over- or undershoots.

In this scheme, the normalized face value is approximated by a combination of linear and parabolic charachteristics passing through the points, O, Q, and P in the NVD. It satisfies TVD condition and is second-order accurate

Usual variables

$f_{w}= \begin{cases} f_{w} + \left( f_{P} - f_{W} \right) \hat{f_{C}} & 0 \leq \hat{f_{C}} \leq 1 \\ f_{W} & \hat{f_{C}} \triangleleft 0 \ , \ \hat{f_{C}} \triangleright 1 \end{cases}$

(2)

where

$a_{w} = 0 , b_{w} = \left(y_{Q}- x^{2}_{Q} \right) / \left(x_{Q}- x^{2}_{Q} \right) , c_{w} = \left(y_{Q}- x_{Q} \right) / \left(x_{Q}- x^{2}_{Q} \right) ,$

(2)

Implementation

Using the switch factors:

for $\boldsymbol{U_w \geq 0}$

$\alpha^{+}_{w} = \begin{cases} 1 & \ if \ | \phi_{P} - 2 \phi_{W} + \phi_{WW}| \triangleleft | \phi_{P} - \phi_{WW} | \\ 0 & otherwise \end{cases}$

(2)

for $\boldsymbol{U_w \triangleleft 0}$

$\alpha^{-}_{w} = \begin{cases} 1 & \ if \ | \phi_{W} - 2 \phi_{P} + \phi_{E}| \triangleleft | \phi_{W} - \phi_{E} | \\ 0 & otherwise \end{cases}$

(2)

and taken all the possible flow directions into account, the un-normalized form of equation can be written as

$\phi_{w} = U^{+}_{w} \phi_{W} + U^{-}_{w} \phi_{P} + \Delta \phi_{w}$

(2)

where

$\Delta \phi_{w} = U^{+}_{w} \alpha^{+}_{w} \left( \phi_{P} - \phi_{W} \right) \frac{\phi_{W} - \phi_{WW}}{\phi_{P} - \phi_{WW}} + U^{-}_{w} \alpha^{-}_{w} \left( \phi_{W} - \phi_{P} \right) \frac{\phi_{P} - \phi_{E}}{\phi_{W} - \phi_{E}}$

(2)

$U^{+}_{w} = 0.5 \left( 1 + \left| U_{w} \right| / U_{w} \right) \ , \ U^{-}_{w} = 1 - U^{+}_{w} \ \ \left( U_{w}\neq 0 \right)$
