A Review of Time Relaxation Methods
The time relaxation model has proven to be effective in regularization of Navier–Stokes Equations. This article reviews several published works discussing the development and implementations of time relaxation and time relaxation models (TRMs), and how such techniques are used to improve the accuracy and stability of fluid flow problems with higher Reynolds numbers. Several analyses and computational settings of TRMs are surveyed, along with parameter sensitivity studies and hybrid implementations of time relaxation operators with different regularization techniques
Computational Study of the Time Relaxation Model With High Order Deconvolution Operator
This paper presents a computational investigation for a time relaxation regularization of Navier–Stokes equations known as Time Relaxation Model, TRM, and its corresponding sensitivity equations. The model generates a regularization based on both filtering and deconvolution. We discretize the equations of TRM and the corresponding sensitivity equations using finite element in space and Crank–Nicolson in time. The step problem and the shear layer roll-up benchmark is used to computationally test the performance of TRM across different orders of deconvolution operator as well as the sensitivity of the shear layer computations of the model with respect to the variation of time relaxation parameter in those cases
Discontinuous Time Relaxation Method for the Time-Dependent Navier-Stokes Equations
A high-order family of time relaxation models based on approximate deconvolution
is considered. A fully discrete scheme using discontinuous finite elements is proposed and analyzed. Optimal velocity error estimates are derived. The dependence of these estimates with respect to the Reynolds number Re is (ReRe), which is an improvement with respect to the continuous finite element method where the dependence is (ReRe3)
Turbulence: Numerical Analysis, Modelling and Simulation
The problem of accurate and reliable simulation of turbulent flows is a central and intractable challenge that crosses disciplinary boundaries. As the needs for accuracy increase and the applications expand beyond flows where extensive data is available for calibration, the importance of a sound mathematical foundation that addresses the needs of practical computing increases. This Special Issue is directed at this crossroads of rigorous numerical analysis, the physics of turbulence and the practical needs of turbulent flow simulations. It seeks papers providing a broad understanding of the status of the problem considered and open problems that comprise further steps
