Efficient implementation of space-time adaptive ADER-DG finite element method with LST-DG predictor and a posteriori sub-cell WENO finite-volume limiting for simulation of non-stationary compressible multicomponent reactive flows

Abstract

The present work is devoted to the study of efficient implementation of spacetime adaptive ADER finite element discontinuous Galerkin method with a posteriori correction technique of solutions on subcells by the finite-volume ADER-WENO limiter scheme for simulation of non-stationary compressible multicomponent reactive flows. The multicomponent and reaction properties of the flow are considered in the form of convection-reaction equations. Therefore an effective scheme of splitting the original nonlinear system of algebraic equations of LST-DG predictor was developed to obtain an efficient iterative solution method. This approach is based on the use of the linearity property of the system of equations for the discrete spacetime solution for the system of convection equations, which makes it possible to pre-compute the inverse matrices, and allows the vectorized calculation of the transfer of individual components. The change in the concentrations of the components in the convection-reaction equations and the energy yield in the gas-dynamic equations due to the reactions are calculated using the global iterations. The iterative scheme for the original essentially nonlinear system of equations is split into a sequence of smaller systems. The approach is well applicable for the problems, especially in the case of a large number of components and reactions in the flow.
