Comments on Three-point explicit compact difference scheme with arbitrary order of accuracy and its application in CFD

The explicit compact difference scheme, proposed in Three-point explicit compact difference scheme with arbitrary order of accuracy and its application in CFD by Lin et al., published in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics （English Edition）, 2007, 28（7）, 943-953, has the same performance as the conventional finite difference schemes. It is just another expression of the conventional finite difference schemes. The proposed expression does not have the advantages of a compact difference scheme. Nonetheless, we can more easily obtain and implement compared with the conventional expression in which the coefficients can only be obtained by solving equations, especially for higher accurate schemes.

A new conservative finite difference scheme is presented based on the numerical analysis for an initialboundary value problem of a class of Schroedinger equation with the wave operator. The scheme can be linear and implicit or explicit based on the parameter choice. The initial value after discretization has second-order accuracy that is consistent with the scheme accuracy. The existence and the uniqueness of the difference solution are proved. Based on the priori estimates and an inequality about norms, the stability and the convergence of difference solutions with the second-order are proved in the energy norm. Experimental results demonstrate the efficiency of the new scheme.

Second-order difference scheme for a nonlinear model of wood drying process

A numerical simulation for a model of wood drying process is considered. The model is given by a couple of nonlinear differential equations. One is a nonlinear parabolic equation and the other one is a nonlinear ordinary equation. A difference scheme is derived by the method of reduction of order. First, a new variable is introduced and the original problem is rewritten into a system of the first-order differential equations. Secondly, a difference scheme is constructed for the later problem. The solvability, stability and convergence of the difference scheme are proved by the energy method. The convergence order of the difference scheme is secondorder both in time and in space. A prior error estimate is put forward. The new variable is put aside to reduce the computational cost. A numerical example testifies the theoretical result.

A NEW NND DIFFERENCE SCHEME OF SECOND-ORDER IN TIME AND SPACE

The study by H.X.Zhang shows that in order to suppress the spurious oscillation at both upstream and downstream of the shock, the coefficient of the third_order derivative on the right hand side of the modified equation of the difference scheme must be positive upstream and negative downstream of the shock. According to this principle, a new non_oscillatory, containing no free parameters and dissipative difference scheme of second_order both in time and space is proposed. It is proved that this scheme possesses TVD property and is generalized Gudunov scheme of second_order. In the presence of the shock wave in the flow field, this scheme is the generalization and improvement of the Lax_Wendroff scheme. Several numerical examples are given which demonstrate that the proposed scheme is non_oscillatory of high order accuracy and high resolution. It also has the advantages of compact form, greater maximum allowable Courant number and convenient to use.

Properties of High-Order Finite Difference Schemes and Idealized Numerical Testing

Construction of high-order difference schemes based on Taylor series expansion has long been a hot topic in computational mathematics, while its application in comprehensive weather models is still very rare. Here, the properties of high-order finite difference schemes are studied based on idealized numerical testing, for the purpose of their application in the Global/Regional Assimilation and Prediction System(GRAPES) model. It is found that the pros and cons due to grid staggering choices diminish with higher-order schemes based on linearized analysis of the one-dimensional gravity wave equation. The improvement of higher-order difference schemes is still obvious for the mesh with smooth varied grid distance. The results of discontinuous square wave testing also exhibits the superiority of high-order schemes. For a model grid with severe non-uniformity and non-orthogonality, the advantage of high-order difference schemes is inapparent, as shown by the results of two-dimensional idealized advection tests under a terrain-following coordinate. In addition, the increase in computational expense caused by high-order schemes can be avoided by the precondition technique used in the GRAPES model. In general, a high-order finite difference scheme is a preferable choice for the tropical regional GRAPES model with a quasi-uniform and quasi-orthogonal grid mesh.
