2 Contents Objective Test Case - Definition of flow problem - Quantities of interest Participants Overview of Codes and Solution Strategies Submitted Results Observations and Future Work

3 Objective ASME V&V Symposium, 3-5 May 2017 Investigate the influence of iterative errors on unsteady flow simulations performed with flow solvers using implicit time integration Check if different flow solvers exhibit the the same trends. Create awareness to the problem. Use the available data to develop iterative error estimators that can be used in the so-called practical applications where tight iterative convergence criteria may become too expensive.

68 Observations Convergence criteria applied at each time step of flow solvers that use implicit time integration may have a significant influence on the numerical accuracy of the solution. Obtaining statistical convergence (periodic solution) and observed orders of grid/time convergence matching the formal order of the discretization does not guarantee that the iterative error is negligible.

69 Observations Results submitted to the Workshop use several different convergence criteria at each time step, distinct accuracies of time discretization and/or various strategies to define the time step. Therefore, comparison between different data of different codes is troublesome. However, submitted data suggest that convergence criteria that guarantee a negligible influence of the iterative error depend on the grid refinement, time step (Courant number) and accuracy of the time integration technique.

70 Future Work A second edition of the Workshop will be proposed for the V&V Symposium of Test case (and grids) remain identical, but simulations will be performed only at Re=100. Quantities of interest remain the same and the number of levels of the iterative convergence criteria at each time step should be preferably larger or equal than 3, discarding conditions that lead to solutions without vortex shedding or with an unreasonable value of the Strouhal number. Three different time steps (or maximum Courant numbers) will be prescribed.

71 Future Work Participants will be requested to report the following information: - Average and maximum values of the residuals at each time step; - Average and maximum number of iterations performed at each time step; - Procedure adopted to normalize the residuals; - Number of cycles used to obtain the quantities of interest and maximum changes obtained in these cycles.
