摘要
For the cell-centered finite volume method, the traditional weighted least-squares (WLSQ) method has a large gradient reconstruction error in large-aspect-ratio curved triangle/quadrilateral meshes. This study systematically investigated the unstructured grid gradient reconstruction method. Based on the Green-Gauss WLSQ (WLSQ(G)) method for the boundary element, the BWLSQ(G) method was obtained by reconstructing the boundary element gradient via inverse distance weighting and stencil augmentation. Based on the self-developed multiphysics coupling software GTEA, the BWLSQ(G) performance was tested using a two-dimensional cylindrical steady-state thermal conductivity test, and the large-aspect-ratio and curved quadrilateral/triangle grid, respectively. The results showed that the improved BWLSQ(G) effectively improves the WLSQ(G) computational efficiency and reduces the boundary element gradient reconstruction error, and achieves the first-order convergence accuracy.
