This Lagrangian DG scheme is based on the physical coordinates rather than the fixed reference coordinates, hence it does not require studying the evolution of the Jacobian matrix for the flow mapping between the different coordinates. The conserved variables are solved directly, and the scheme can preserve the conservation property for mass, momentum and total energy. The strong stability preserving (SSP) Runge-Kutta (RK) method is used for the time discretization. Furthermore, there are two main contributions. Firstly, differently from the previous work, we design a new Lagrangian DG scheme which is truly second-order accurate for all the variables such as density, momentum, total energy, pressure and velocity, while the similar DG schemes in the literature may lose second-order accuracy for certain variables, as shown in numerical experiments. Secondly, as an extension and application, we develop a particular Lagrangian DG scheme in the cylindrical geometry, which is designed to be able to preserve one-dimensional spherical symmetry for all the linear polynomials in two-dimensional cylindrical coordinates when computed on an equal-angle-zoned initial grid. The distinguished feature is that it can maintain both the spherical symmetry and conservation properties, which is very important for many applications such as implosion problems. A series of numerical experiments in the two-dimensional Cartesian and cylindrical coordinates are given to demonstrate the good performance of the Lagrangian DG schemes in terms of accuracy, symmetry and non-oscillation.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":352,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Computational Physics","volume":"521 ","pages":"Article 113530"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2024-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142560650","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this work, a simplified inverse distance weighting-immersed boundary method (SIDW-IBM) is proposed to eliminate the intrinsic limitations in the original implicit IDW-IBM. Through error analysis using Taylor series expansion, a second order approximation can be derived, which allows us to approximate the large square correlation matrix into a diagonal matrix; thereby, we proposed the SIDW-IBM based on this second order approximation to explicitly evaluate the velocity corrections, where the needs to assemble the large correlation matrix and inverse it are circumvented. Owing to the fact that the inverse distance weighting interpolation removes the limitations in the Dirac delta function, the proposed SIDW-IBM has been successfully implemented on the non-uniform meshes to further improve the computational efficiency.

This concerns particularly small-scale flows and, more generally, highly-resolved liquid-gas simulations with moderate inertia. To date, the majority of interfacial-flow simulations are performed using an explicit surface-tension treatment, which restrains the performance of such simulations. Recently, an implicit treatment of surface tension able to breach the capillary time-step constraint using the volume-of-fluid (VOF) method was proposed, based on a fully-coupled pressure-based finite-volume algorithm. To this end, the interface-advection equation is incorporated implicitly into the linear flow solver, resulting in a tight coupling between all implicit solution variables (colour function, pressure, velocity). However, this algorithm is limited to uniform density and viscosity fields. Here, we present a fully-coupled algorithm for interfacial flows with implicit surface tension applicable to interfacial flows with large density and viscosity ratios. This is achieved by solving the continuity and momentum equations in conservative form, whereby the density is treated implicitly with respect to the colour function, and the advection term of the interface-advection equation is discretised using the THINC/QQ algebraic VOF scheme, yielding a consistent discretisation of the advective terms. This new algorithm is tested by considering representative surface-tension-dominated interfacial flows, including the Laplace equilibrium of a stationary droplet and the three-dimensional Rayleigh-Plateau instability of a liquid filament. The presented results demonstrate that interfacial flows with large density and viscosity ratios can be simulated and energy conservation is ensured, even with a time step larger than the capillary time-step constraint, provided that other time-step restrictions are satisfied.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":352,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Computational Physics","volume":"520 ","pages":"Article 113520"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2024-10-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142536280","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
