Reducing the fuel consumption of gas turbines and jet engines by enhancement of the turbine inlet temperature requires a suitable increase of compressor pressure ratio. To ensure stable operation of the compressor at part-load working conditions, variable inlet guide vanes (IGV) and stators are often used. The variation of these IGV's is usually go...
The author considers the discretization of linear nonstationary (essentially) hyperbolic systems by the streamline diffusion finite element method and give a local error estimate in the energy norm for both linear scalar hyperbolic equations in arbitrary dimensions and for systems in one space-dimension. For piecewise linear shape functions in time...
We give an analysis of a parallel solution method for non-stationary convection-diffusion problems. The discretization is by the streamline diffusion finite element method combined with a blockwise implicit time stepping on an overlapping domain decomposition. The missing interior boundary values are predicted by extrapolation in time. This approac...
