Abstract

We present a conservative isothermal wall boundary condition treatment for the compressible Navier-Stokes equations. The treatment is based on a manipulation of the Osher solver to predict the pressure and density at the wall, while specifying a zero boundary flux and a fixed temperature. With other solvers, a non-zero mass flux occurs through a wall boundary, which is significant at low resolutions in closed geometries. A simulation of a lid driven cavity flow with a multidomain spectral method illustrates the effect of the new boundary condition treatment.
