Hi Amitvikram,

The key efforts in SVV have been motivated by the work of Rodrigo. However the implementation is likely to require some of the senior developers effort and currently Douglas is the one who has been working most closely with the compressible solver. 

However it is not entirely clear to me that SVV is the best option here. We have made our SVV contribution in the incompressible solver mimic DG and so in principle the same features should be observed in the DG Compressible code. However initialisation of this code has different challenges and may require using the shock capturing features. 

I am cc’ing Douglas and Rodrigo to see if they have further comments.

Regards,
Spencer.

Hi all,

Our lab is trying to adopt Nektar++ as its solver of choice for both compressible and incompressible problems in the turbulent and transitional regimes of flow. Therefore, we have been exploring the use of the SVV kernel and have found it to be quite suitable for incompressible flows.

However, we understand that SVV was never implemented for the compressible flow solver. We'd like to examine the effort it would take to actually carry out this implementation. To this end could you put me in touch with anyone who has done any work on this direction in the past?

Sincerely,
