Abstract
We have developed two new methods for solving convection-diffusion systems, with particular focus on the compressible Navier-Stokes equations. Our methods are extensions of a spacetime discontinuous Galerkin method for solving systems of hyperbolic conservation laws [3]. Following the original scheme, we use entropy variables as degrees of freedom and entropy stable numerical fluxes for the nonlinear convection term. We examine two different approaches for incorporating the diffusion term: the interior penalty method and the local discontinuous Galerkin approach. For both extensions, we can show an entropy stability result for convection-diffusion systems. Although our schemes are designed for systems, we focus on scalar convectiondiffusion equations in this contribution. This allows us to highlight our main ideas behind the stability proofs, which are the same for scalar equations and systems, in a simplified setting.
