Symmetric conservative metric method: a link between high order finite-difference and finite-volume schemes for flow computations around complex geometries
High-order finite difference schemes (FDSs) based on symmetric conservative metric method (SCMM) are investigated.Firstly,the decomposition and geometric meaning of the discrete metrics and Jacobian based on SCMM are proposed.In addition,the discrete metrics based on SCMM are compared with that based on another two nonsymmetric forms.Then,high-order central FDS based on SCMM is proved to be a weighted summation of second-order finite volume schemes (FVSs).The decomposition of solution and discrete conservation law are also given.Moreover,the decomposition and connection with FVSs are also discussed for general high-order FDSs.Numerical experiments show superiority of high-order FDSs based on SCMM in stability,keeping high order of accuracy and computing flows around complex geometries.The results in this paper may explain why high-order FDSs based on SCMM can robustly solve problems with complex geometries and may give some guidance in constructing high-order FDSs on curvilinear coordinates.
