Abstract

Abstract

The performance of the ISFD (least square-based flute difference) method is compared with the conventional FD(fiute difference) schemes. For the approximation of the first and second order derivatives by the conventional central difference schemes, 9-point stencils for the 2D case and 27-point stencils for the 3D case are usually used. When the same stencils are used, the explicit ISFD formulations for apprrntimation of the fist and second order derivatives were present. the ISFD formutations are actually the combination of conventional central difference schemes along relevant mesh lines. It is found that ISFD formulations need much less iteration steps than the conventional FD schemes to get the converged solution, and the ratio of mesh spacing in the x and y directions is an important parameter in the ISFD application, which has a great effect on the stability of ISFD computation.
