Abstract: |
The accuracy of gradient reconstruction methods implemented in unstructured cell-centered finite-volume discretization schemes were analyzed both theoretically and numerically.Conditions were derived for methods based on the Green-Gauss formula (GG methods) and methods based on the least squares approach (LSQ methods) to achieve at least first-order gradient reconstruction.For GG methods,second-order approximation of surface midpoint value is required when no cancellation effect occurs.On the other hand,LSQ methods are at least first-order accurate on arbitrary unstructured grids.Numerical testing on gradient reconstruction accuracy verified the mathematical conclusions.Solution errors of inviscid flow simulation were quantified using the Method of Manufactured Solutions (MMS).Grid convergence studies were performed to examine the effects of mesh quality,such as mesh perturbation,curvature,skewness and mesh type on the accuracy of inviscid flow simulation. |
