Research direction

Start by reviewing the current steady Navier–Stokes discretization and its existing DG treatment for viscous interface constraints. Done means establishing a full-DG formulation over all interior faces that avoids the reported sub-optimal convergence rate.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Current discretization for steady Navier-Stokes flow employs DG method only for viscous interface constraint. When the DG method is fully employed over all interior faces, the convergence rate becomes sub-optimal. The proper full-DG formulation for steady NS flow isn't figured out yet.
