Abstract
In this work we apply the high-order Discontinuous Galerkin (DG) finite element method to internal low-Mach number turbulent flows. The method here presented is designed to improve the performance of the solution in the incompressible limit using an implicit scheme for the temporal integration of the compressible Reynolds Averaged Navier Stokes (RANS) equations. The per- formance of the scheme is demonstrated by solving a well-known test-case consisting of an abrupt axisymmetric expansion using various degrees of polynomial approximation. Computations with k-Ï model are performed to assess the modelling capabilities, with high-order accurate DG discretizations of the RANS equations, in presence of non-equilibrium flow conditions.
