What is Discrete Unified Gas Kinetic Scheme for Continuum Compressible Flows about?

In this paper, a discrete unified gas kinetic scheme (DUGKS) is proposed for continuum compressible gas flows based on the total energy kinetic model [Guo et al., Phys. Rev. E 75, 036704 (2007)]. The proposed DUGKS can be viewed as a special finite-volume lattice Boltzmann method for the compressible Navier-Stokes equations in the double distribution function formulation, in which the mass and momentum transport are described by the kinetic equation for a density distribution function (g), and the energy transport is described by the other one for an energy distribution function (h). To recover the full compressible Navier-Stokes equations exactly, the corresponding equilibrium distribution functions g eq and h eq are expanded as Hermite polynomials up to third and second orders, respectively. The velocity spaces for the kinetic equations are discretized according to the seventh and fifth Gauss-Hermite quadratures. Consequently, the computational efficiency of the present DUGKS can be much improved in comparison with previous versions using more discrete velocities required by the ninth Gauss-Hermite quadrature.
