Abstract
When the artificial compressibility method in conjunction with highorder upwind compact finite difference schemes is employed to discretize the steadystate incompressible NavierStokes equations in each pseudotime step we need to solve a structured system of linear equations approximately by for example a Krylov subspace method such as the preconditioned GMRES In this paper based on the special structure and concrete property of the linear system we construct a structured preconditioner for its coefficient matrix and estimate eigenvalue bounds of the correspondingly preconditioned matrix Numerical examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed preconditioning methodsSupported by The Hundred Talent Project of Chinese Academy of Sciences The National Natural Science Foundation for Creative Research Groups No 11021101 The National Natural Science Foundation No 91118001 No 10972230 and No 11021101 and The National Basic Research Program No 2011CB309703 and No 2010CB731505 PR China
