Foreword
This volume contains thirty-seven reports on work, which was conducted between 1993 and
1995 in the Priority Research Programme "Flow Simulation with High-Perfonnance
Computers" of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG, Gennan Research Society), 1989
to 1995.
The main purpose of this pUblication is to give an overview over the work conducted in the
second half of the programme, and to make the results obtained available to the public. The
reports are grouped under the four headings "Flow Simulation with Massively Parallel
Systems", "Direct and Large-Eddy Simulation of Turbulence", "Mathematical Foundations,
General Solution Techniques and Applications" and "Results of Benchmark Computations".
All contributions to this publication have been reviewed by a board consisting of F. Durst
(Erlangen), R. Friedrich (Miinchen), D. Hanel (Duisburg), R. Rautmann (Paderbom),
H. Wengle (Mtinchen), and the editor. The responsibility for the contents of the reports
nevertheless lies with the authors.

Preface
The Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) sponsored the development of numeri
cal simulation techniques in fluid mechanics since 1989 in a Priority Research Program
"Flow Simulation with High-performance Computers". The major results obtained in this
program until 1992 were published in summarizing articles in Volume 38 of the "Notes on
Numerical Fluid Mechanics" of the Vieweg Verlag. The present volume summarizes the
results of the second half of the program, which completed its investigations December 1995.
The problems studied included developments of solution techniques as well as ap
plications. Altogether 35 projects were supported. It is worthwhile to point out, that 13
projects concentrated on the parallelization of algorithms and related work. The program
thereby stimulated research in this relatively new branch of computational fluid dynamics in
Germany with marked success. Development of general solution techniques and their
application were pursued in 17 projects, and the remainder 5 projects were devoted to the
development of simulation techniques for transitional and turbulent flows.
The work on parallel solution techniques included development of a time and space
multi-grid method, of parallel finite element methods for the solution of the Navier-Stokes
equations, performance enhancement of parallelized algorithms, adaptive operator techniques,
and parallel interactive and integrated visualization techniques. The applications of par
a1lelized algorithms comprised simulation of turbulent flow, of various viscous incompress
ible flows, of unsteady flows in turbomachinery, of chemically reacting flow, and of aerody
namic .f lows.
The work on other solution techniques included approximations in high order norms,
low Mach number solutions based on asymptotic analysis, solutions based on the artificial
compressibility concept, on higher order upwind schemes on unstructured grids, and others.
The applications included simulation of aerodynamic and of hypersonic flows, of flows in
turbomachinery and other complex internal flows. The investigations of transitional and
turbulent flows were aimed at direct simulation of internal compressed turbulent flow and of
separated flows; at large-eddy simulation of near-wall turbulence, of turbulent flows in
curved pipes, and of turbulent boundary-layer flow over a hemisphere.
The cooperation with the Groupment de Recherche Mecanique des Fluides Numerique
of the French Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) was continued. The
second joint workshop was held May 3 -5 1993 in Lambrecht (Pfalz) on the topic "Three
Dimensional Flow -Alternative Formulations and Solution of the Conservation Equations".
At this occasion several representatives of the CNRS and the DFG under the chairmanship
of one of the vice presidents of the DFG, Prof. S. Wittig, met and discussed possibilities of
cooperation. Agreement was reached on the following points: Cooperation in 10 joint
projects within the frame of existing programs; participation of a French representative in the
meetings of the German reviewing board and vice versa; organization of a joint meeting in
Sophia-Antipolis at the end of 1994 with the aim of preparing a joint CNRS-DFG research
program on computational fluid dynamics.
A third joint CNRS-DFG workshop was organized December 9 - 10, 1993 at Stutt
gart University under the topic "Computational Fluid Dynamics on Parallel Systems". The
contributions were published in volume 50 of the "Notes on Numerical Fluid Dynamics" of
the Vieweg Verlag under the title of the workshop. They were edited by S. Wagner of
Stuttgart University. The fourth workshop was held in Sophia-Antipolis November 25 -26,
1994. As proposed in Lambrecht one year earlier, 20 projects for a prospective joint
program entitled "Numerical Flow Simulation, A French -German Research Initiative" were
discussed in the presence of official representatives of the CNRS and the DF G, and in March
1995 a proposal for such a program was submitted to the CNRS and the DFG under the title
"Joint French - German Research Program: Numerical Flow Simulation". The individual
proposals were reviewed by a French -German reviewing board November 27, 1995 and
submitted for final decision to the CNRS and the DFG.
The DFG Priority Research Program "Flow Simulation on High-Performance
Computers" substantially stimulated and fostered research in this field over a long period of
time. It was a safe stepping stone for initiating and supporting work on paralellization. It
brought together engineers and applied mathematicians in fruitful cooperation. The program
helped to maintain international competiveness in flow research and markedly fastened the
ties to the corresponding French program.
It is with great pleasure, that the undersigned take this opportunity to thank: the DFG
for supporting work on numerical flow simulation over more than six years. The efforts of
the reviewers, Profs. Dr. G. Bohme and Dr. R. Rannacher are gratefully acknowledged.
Their invaluable expertise helped to shape the program in many ways. They stimulated
interdisciplinary discussion between engineers and mathematicians, who participated in the
program. Their efforts are reflected in the articles published in this volume. Without the
continuous help and far-sighted administering of the program by Dr. W. Lachenmeier it
would have been impossible to maintain continuity in the research activities over the years.
We thank: him for his efforts.
Finally the Vieweg Verlag is gratefully acknowledged for publishing the results in the
Notes on Numerical Fluid Mechanics, and Prof. Dr. E. H. Hirschel for editing this volume.
