SUPG Method
(Streamline Upwind/Petrov-Galerkin)
Upwind Differencing on the convective term can give solutions
that are devoid of unphysical oscillations.
The upwinded convective term can be constructed simply by
adding artificial diffusion to a central difference treatment.
To arrive at this formulation through finite element methods,
there are two paths.
The first method involves addition of artificial viscosity to the
original diffusion term, which is a function of the convective
velocity. The second method involves use of modified basis for
the weight functions (different from the trial functions), which
give more weight to the upstream nodes.
The latter is called the Petrov-Galerkin method.
Problems with upwind schemes: Order of accuracy is lower than central difference scheme.
Over-diffusivity of solutions in presence of source and transient
terms.
Crosswind diffusion problem when the flow is skew to the mesh.
SUPG Approach: The artificial diffusion operator is constructed to act only in the flow
direction, eliminating the possibility of any crosswind diffusion.
Instead of adding the artificial diffusive term only to the diffusive
part of the initial difference scheme, the operator now acts on all
the terms of the original convection-diffusion equation (with source
terms as well as transient terms).
The weight functions across the inter-element boundaries are
discontinuous. They are chosen in the same way as described for
the normal Petrov-Galerkin method.
Addition of a shock-capturing parameter, which is found out using
entropy variables, to the above developed SUPG form enables the
tracking of the discontinuities or shock in the flow.
Here Fi & Ei
are Euler & Viscous flux vectors respectively. Using these, the
quasi-linear form of Navier-Stokes equation can be constructed as:-
Here, the first element level series represents the SUPG stabilization
term with stabilization coefficient , while the second series represents
the shock capturing term with as the shock capturing parameter.
