A High-Order Discontinuous Galerkin Spectral Element Method for Compressible Reacting Flows

High-order methods have recently been shown to be an effective tool for high-fidelity flow computations like direct numerical simulations and large eddy simulations due to their strong balance between accuracy and computational cost. In this work, a high-order discontinuous Galerkin spectral element method (DGSEM) is developed to solve the chemically reactive Euler equations encountered in high-speed combustion. To handle the disparate length and time scales associated with these equations, we develop a novel method which combines the spectral accuracy of the SEM with the flexibility of DG approach. Thus, the framework is well suited to capture turbulence in smooth regions of the flow, while maintaining numerical stability in the presence of shocks. The numerical method is implemented within the spectral element solver Nek5000. Validation cases are conducted for both non-reactive and reactive discontinuous flows to demonstrate the solver capability. In particular, canonical one-dimensional and two-dimensional detonation simulations are performed and the high-order numerical results are validated against available literature data.
