4. Parallel methods • Big linear systems your project full-blown 3D problem! • More than 1 million nodes. • Memory becomes a problem – cannot store a matrix on one processor. • Slow calculation! • solution : use many processors! Split matrix to 4 processors in this example! p1 p2 p3 p4 BIG matrix

5. Course Masterial Review • Navier-Stokes equations and RANS • Turbulence modeling • Discretization and equation solver • Boundary conditions • Numerical properties • Specific CFD problems

6. Conservation Equations Navier Stokes Equations

7. Reynolds Averaged Navier Stokes equations Continuity: 1) Momentum: 2) 3) 4) Similar is for STy and STx 4 equations 5 unknowns → We need to model

8. Modeling of Turbulent Viscosity Fluid property – often called laminar viscosity Flow property – turbulent viscosity MVM: Mean velocity models TKEM: Turbulent kinetic energy equation models Additional models: LES: Large Eddy simulation models RSM: Reynolds stress models

9. Discretization and equation solver SIMPLE algorithm Discretization of RANS Guess p* p=p* Step1: solve V* from momentum equations Step2: introduce correction P’ and express V = V* + f(P’) Step3: substitute V into continuity equation solve P’ and then V Step4: Solve T , k , e equations no Converged (residual check) yes end
