Performance and analysis of saddle point preconditioners for the discrete steady-state Navier-Stokes equations

We examine the convergence characteristics of iterative methods based on a new preconditioning operator for solving the linear systems arising from discretization and linearization of the steady-state Navier-Stokes equations. With a combination of analytic and empirical results, we study the effects...
