Abstract

A non-relaxation gas-kinetic scheme is developed, which recovers the accuracy of the BGK scheme with higher computational efficiency and without relaxation parameter. The extension of this approach to the Navier – Stokes equations further provides a solution for development of Discontinuous Galerkin method for the Navier – Stokes equations.
