Abstract
A new diffusion regulation approach for better resolution of discontinuous solutions of Euler equations is presented here. A Dissipation Regulator (DR) model is introduced to compute dissipative flux of a finite volume scheme according to different flow conditions and hence to obtain a stable and low dissipative scheme. A regulator parameter introduced here is modeled as a function of jump in magnitude of mach number across the finite volume interface, with a minimum positive value of parameter being maintained to have sufficient dissipation for stability and to avoid unphysical expansion solutions. The maximum parameter value is restricted to unity and the spatial derivatives of the finite volume scheme always take values ranging from a central difference flux to that of a full upwind flux. The algorithm is demonstrated on the Peculiar Velocity based Upwind (PVU) Kinetic Scheme by introducing regulator parameters based on modified C-I-R splitting for molecular velocity. The DR-PVU scheme is tested for standard cases of subsonic, supersonic and hypersonic regimes for internal and external flows. The results show a very marked improvement over the parent scheme and have a scope to be compared with that of any popular high accuracy schemes. Although demonstrated for high resolution in a Kinetic Scheme, this concept of diffusion regulation can be easily extended to any upwind scheme or to any numerical scheme of high dissipation.
