Abstract

We considered nonlinear solvers inside implicit time integration schemes for the time dependent compressible Navier-Stokes equations. The existing solvers turn out to be adequate, but amenable to significant improvements. Regarding multigrid schemes, we demonstrated that reoptimizing a multigrid scheme for the case of a time dependent equation leads to significant improvements in convergence speed compared to reusing the steady state method. As for Newton schemes, inexact Jacobian-free Newton-GMRES methods using the Eisenstat-Walker strategy are easy to implement and fast and, as opposed to the situation for steady flows, a true alternative to multigrid.
