Diagonal implicit multigrid solution of compressible turbulent flows
The Caughey (1988) multigrid diagonal implicit algorithm for Euler equations is extended to solve the two-dimensional thin layer Navier-Stokes equations for turbulent transonic flows. To further accelerate convergence to a steady state, the implicit scheme is used within the multigrid method. Results are presented for transonic flows past airfoils, and the flow-field results are compared with other computational data and experiments demonstrating the accuracy of the method.
