Comparison of Robustness and Efficiency for SIMPLE and CLEAR Algorithms with 13 High-Resolution Convection Schemes in Compressible Flows

In this article, a comparison is made between the robustness and efficiency of the CLEAR algorithm and the SIMPLE algorithm on nonorthogonal curvilinear coordinates for compressible flows. Thirteen different high-order convection schemes are employed in the calculations. Subsonic flow, transsonic flow, and supersonic flow in a channel with a circular arc bump and compressible flow in a Laval nozzle are used as test cases. The CLEAR algorithm shows huge potential to compute the transsonic flow in the Laval nozzle and high-speed compressible flows. Results with the ADBQUICKEST scheme, the HLPA scheme, and the MUSCL scheme are stable for both the compressible SIMPLE and CLEAR algorithms for all the mentioned cases.
