  • Abstract

Multi-dimensional coupled Burgers' equations are important nonlinear partial differential equations arising in fluid mechanics. Developing high-order and efficient numerical methods for solving the Burgers' equation is essential in many real applications since exact solutions can not be obtained generally. In this paper, we seek a high-order accurate and efficient numerical method for solving multi-dimensional coupled Burgers' equations. A linearized combined compact difference (CCD) method together with alternating direction implicit (ADI) method is proposed. The CCD-ADI method is sixth-order accuracy in space variable and second-order accuracy in time variable. The resulting linear system at each ADI computation step corresponds to a block-tridiagonal system which can be effectively solved by the block Thomas algorithm. Fourier analysis shows that the method is unconditionally stable. Numerical experiments including both two-dimensional and three-dimensional problems are conducted to demonstrate the accuracy and efficiency of the method.
