Multi-component Modeling with the Dual Mesh Connect Approach

An approach for the treatment of CFD simulations on configurations consisting of more than one discretized components is described. The approach interfaces the dual meshes of the different blocks through cutting with an interface common for the blocks and is named the Dual Mesh Connect (DMC) approach. This approach is spatially conservative and capable of treating blocks with intersecting geometries in a natural manner. A description of the current implementation is given and the application of the method a wing geometry is shown.
