Abstract
A novel high-order projection method is presented in this study for the simulation of incompressible turbulent flows, utilising weighted essentially non-oscillatory (WENO) schemes. Spatial discretization involves using WENO schemes for nonlinear convection and standard central differences (CD) for the viscous term. The approach combines various orders of WENO and central difference schemes (WENO3/CD2, WENO5/CD4, and WENO7/CD6) to achieve third, fifth, and seventh-order spatial accuracy for velocity fields, respectively. Validating this method involved a thorough examination using the 2D Taylor Green vortex problem in both space and time, along with simulations of 3D Taylor-Green vortex problems at increasing Reynolds numbers (Re) of 1, 600, 16, 000, and 160, 000. The outcomes encompassed analyses of kinetic energy, enstrophy, energy spectra, and vortex fields, indicating the method's effectiveness in accurately simulating high Reynolds number turbulent flows without additional sub-grid scale models.
