Abstract

For equations with convective terms, a difference scheme is described based on ninth-order multioperator approximations. Its optimization aimed at achieving a high resolution of small scales of solutions is discussed. The scheme is applied to test problems, and shear layer instability is numerically simulated with a detailed analysis of developing vortex structures and their characteristics.
