Abstract Despite the advances in computer power and numerical algorithms over the last decades, solutions to unsteady flow problems remain computing time intensive.
In previous work [Lucas, P.,Bijl, H., and Zuijlen, A.H. van(2010)], we have shown that a Jacobian-free Newton-Krylov (JFNK) algorithm, preconditioned with an approximate factorization of the Jacobian which approximately matches the target residual operator, enables a speed up of a factor of 10 compared to nonlinear multigrid (NMG) for two-dimensional, large Reynolds number, unsteady flow computations. Furthermore, in [Lucas, P., Zuijlen, A.H. van, and Bijl, H. (2010)] we show that this algorithm also greatly… More >
