Abstract

A higher order element, the Tocher 10 or C 0 Cubic on triangles, is the base for formulation of a finite element algorithm for numerical calculation of fluid flows governed by the unsteady Navier-Stokes equations. Results from the calculation of supersonic free shear layer flow are numerically accurate and in excellent agreement with finite difference solutions. Diverse characteristics for these two classes of methods emerge when the requirements of core storage and computer time are considered.
