Overview

Numerical study demonstrates high-order accuracy in viscoelastic flow solvers using manufactured solutions, highlighting a robust verification framework for complex fluid simulations.

Key Points

  • To verify high-order compact finite-difference numerical schemes for two-dimensional incompressible viscoelastic flows formulated in vorticity and stream functions using the Method of Manufactured Solutions.
  • Applied the Method of Manufactured Solutions based on a lid-driven cavity benchmark to formulate artificial analytical solutions that preserve boundary conditions and governing equations.
  • Tested high-order compact finite-difference schemes across Oldroyd-B and Giesekus constitutive models over varying Reynolds numbers, Weissenberg numbers, solvent viscosity ratios, and mobility parameters.
  • Achieved an asymptotic convergence order of approximately 4.5 for most flow variables across tested parameter spaces.
  • Vorticity showed slightly reduced convergence orders at higher Reynolds numbers, though mesh refinement consistently reduced global error across both constitutive models.
