二阶时间精度的CFD/CSD耦合算法研究

非线性气动弹性分析中,涉及到非线性流体动力学(CFD)和非线性结构动力学(CSD)的耦合计算问题。本文分析比较了目前几种耦合算法:全耦合、松耦合和紧耦合,并从耦合边界能量传递守恒上就松耦合及紧耦合方法进行了时间精度的分析,得出传统松耦合中即使流体和结构子系统达到高阶时间精度,耦合算法的时间精度仍仅为一阶,紧耦合方法虽然可以达到二阶时间精度,但没有明显提高计算效率。随后,本文基于松耦合流程改进了耦合格式,分析表明其具有二阶时间精度,通过AGARD445.6机翼颤振模型的算例验证,说明该方法可以在保证计算精度的基础上明显提高计算效率,并保持了传统松耦合方法模块化的优点,在模拟非线性气动弹性问题时具有很高的优越性。

Analysis for second order time accurate CFD/CSD coupled algorithms

Computational fluid dynamics(CFD) and Computational structural dynamics(CSD) referring to aeroelasticity are highly nonlinear problems in the time domain.In this study,we analysis numerical precision of recent coupling method based on energy transfer between fluid and structure,and conclude that: the fully coupled method is limited in aeroelastic solution as its highly nonlinear characteristic;the conventional loosely coupled method,although the solver of fluid and structure can obtain high order time accur...
